    Shower partner

    So I'm taking a shower. DW is watching Mocha. Mocha sneaked off to find daddy. He jumped through the shower curtain scaring me 1/2 to death!!! We built a big walk in shower with multiple body sprays and 2 shower heads (it's great). HE LOVED IT! running around biting the water and splashing around. Next day we had had a lot of rain and it was muddy and so was Mocha. We cleaned his feet in the garage and sent him to the showers!

    The most our two will do is stick their head around the shower curtain. Would be so much easier to clean them up if they would willingly get in. Something to work on I guess.
    Hope all is well and have a great day

    We do that too! Our shower is walk in so we just turn the shower on and he walks in and has a wash then walks out again. So easy!!

    I bet that was quite a shock! Kain is despises the bathroom primarily because he hates baths. You can literally say "wanna take a bath Kain" and he runs and hides lol. Irony he loves to swim and play in his baby pool.

    We have a removable head nozzle in our walk-in shower. I just put Levi in there and hose him down. He can't escape once the door is closed.

    The trick is to get them in the shower.... but I need to work on this since last time I lifted Dio's back end into the tub I twisted my back.

    We have sliding shower doors on ours. Opie loves his garden hose showers outside though.

    Polly loves to climb in the bath and I just shower her off with the spray nozzle. She'll even stand in the bath just to lick the soap!

    She'll often poke her head around the curtain when I'm in - just to make sure I didn't disappear somehow!

    I taught Wylie the "Go Place" command to go to a small rug by our patio doors. Once he learned that. I taught him to "Go Shower" and he knows to go to the shower and sit in there. I use this when his paws are muddy and I have to wipe them down. I haven't tried having him in the shower with the Water running yet though. Especially when I'm in it. LOL. I put him in the crate for that when I do it. He likes to sit and wait for me while shaving and brushing my teeth or when I'm changing my elderly father's diapers and getting him changed in the morning. He knows our routine and likes to be a part of it.
