Bathing
If your dog is prone to running away from water, I highly suggest another person helping you. It wouldn’t hurt to have a collar specifically used for bath time. This way you can use a leash to keep them close and in place. If you have to leave the collar on because you don’t have someone to help, make sure you rinse around it thoroughly, and take it off once they are ready to be dried. If you leave a wet collar on, you are leaving them vulnerable to sores around their neck. Keep soap out of their eyes, and avoid water getting into their ears.
