How to create a calming bath time for your dog. Bathing your pet doesn’t have to be a stressful event! With a few simple steps, you can transform bath time into a calming and enjoyable experience for both you and your four legged friend. Here’s how to do it.
Set the Scene
Create a calm and inviting environment. Gather all your supplies—pet shampoo, towels, and a brush—so everything is within reach, meaning you are ready to go.
Choose the Right Products
Our Conditioning Shampoos are designed to cleanse and care for the coat and skin. Each one contains our special scent Shinebright which is proven to make bathing a calmer experience - and is dog approved!
Introduce Water Gradually
Introduce them to water slowly. Start by wetting their feet and legs with lukewarm water, then gradually move to the rest of their body. Using a handheld showerhead with a gentle stream can help control the water flow and avoid startling your pup.
Gentle Massage Technique
While lathering the shampoo, use gentle, circular motions to massage your pet’s fur. Be extra careful around sensitive areas like the face, ears, and tail. Use a damp cloth for these areas instead of direct water.
Thorough Rinsing and Drying
Ensure that all shampoo is thoroughly rinsed out to avoid skin irritation. After rinsing, gently squeeze out excess water and wrap your pet in a soft, absorbent towel like our super absorbent Bamboo towels proven to dry your dog quicker and reduce tangling.
How to create a calm bath time after Bathing
Once the bath is over, reward your pet with a treat and some love. Our friends at PAWD are dedicated to keeping your dog calm all the time which is why we love their PAWD Calming supplement drinks - and not a pill in sight!
