Place your dog in the bath, and expect a little resistance at first. You may need to reassure your dog as he or she learns to relax in the bath. Use a plastic cup to pour water over your dog’s body, and he or she should start to ease into the experience.

Keep your dog in the water for at least ten minutes, and then carefully lift him or her from the bath and towel dry.
