Why oh why ............?
« on: May 16, 2004, 04:14:27 PM »
:cry:   Why do my gorgeous little girls luuuuuuv rolling in fox's poo ?!!

Once again, my two have had to be bathed after a smelly session.   I don't mind the bathing, but the bending over the bath kills my back, especially with two !

Has anyone got any tips for bathing their dogs - is it possible to get a doggy bath at a better height?

I have the same problem, which is usually a choice between the smell or a sore back

Tomato ketchup applied liberally to fox poo stains & rinsed off afterwards (naturally :lol:) gets rid of the smell very effectively without the need for 2 or 3 baths. This is tried & tested here as our Lily likes nothing more than a good roll in the stuff :lol:

I shower mine in the bath, but sit down on the floor right next to the bath to do it.
