]]> 21016 2 37 Tip Line the tub with a towel to keep the dog’s feet from skidding.

]]> 21017 3 43 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/1095/43.jpg Put dog into bath Put the dog into his bath. He will likely resist, so stay firm.

]]> 21018 4 49 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/1095/49.jpg Wet your pet Use a spray hose or a large plastic pitcher to thoroughly wet your pet. Be sure not to get water directly in the dog’s eyes, ears, or nose.

]]> 21019 5 58 Tip Leave your dog’s collar on to help you hang on to him if he tries to flee. Another pair of hands will also help if your dog is especially large or wriggly.

]]> 21020 6 67 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/1095/67.jpg Massage in shampoo Working from head to tail, gently massage the shampoo throughout the dog’s coat.

]]> 21023 9 90 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/1095/90.jpg Rinse him off Using the hose or pitcher again, rinse him off. Take care to do so completely—dried shampoo can seriously irritate a dog’s skin.

]]> 21024 10 100 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/1095/100.jpg Check inside ears Check the insides of his ears. If necessary, clean them gently with dampened cotton balls.

]]> 21025 11 107 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/1095/107.jpg Dry him Dry him as much as possible with a clean towel.

]]> 21026 12 111 Tip No matter how dry you think you’ve gotten your dog, be prepared: he’ll shake himself like mad the minute he gets a chance!

]]> 21027 13 118 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/1095/118.jpg Brush dog Give your dog a quick brush to release any small tangles, and then set him free. He’ll probably go roll around in the dirt to celebrate.
