@myers Yea I do!

@myers That’s so nice of you! I’m a little north of Detroit. I think it’s water itself. They don’t have bathtub in pet smart, they have washing stations on the floor. In the self wash, it’s a bath tub kind of system. I’m gonna do wash cloth technique as another redditor suggested.

@myers Are you by any chance in Michigan ? 😂 I would drive to you. You sound like trustworthy and gem of person. I will look into it. Thank you. I’m also considering trying self wash again. I did before and she behaves the same. Anything I can do in meantime at home? No bathroom but wet cloth...

@ostara Yes, her everyday walks are on paved paths, according to her current groomer she tolerates the nail grinding. I also do that every 2-3 months as you said, it files them down with walks. I’m gonna do ear cleaning and teeth brushing myself as slowly as possible we might be able to achieve...

@genna Her vet suggested a bath once in 8 weeks or so as she does have bad allergies and a skin infection past. We hike almost 2-3 times a week. I wipe her paws, belly, and coat whenever we come home with wet wipes. But after 8 weeks she does start scratching more, gets tail infections, extreme...

@satanisnotdead Yes. That’s a great idea. Also she likes PB so I was thinking of putting her lick mat in the bath tub. She doesn’t even put a paw in bathroom because she was forced before by previous owner according to the shelter. But I’m gonna take your advice and give it try during holidays.

@rev_dc I understand. But she doesn’t let me. We are still learning each other and like I mentioned she has bad past. It’s only been 8 months. I’m trying to get her trust me more with all the things.

@recheal95 So when I said grooming, it’s just bath, nail grinding, brushing teeth, and cleaning ears. But she is so deathly afraid of water that she almost had a panic attack this morning. She has severe bad skin infections and according to her vet, even short-haired dogs should bathe at least...

I found this sub today and I’m so glad. Background: 7yo female pit boxer mix, used to mil puppies for 3.5 years, two adopters abandoned her in bad condition, I’m the 4th owner and her personality came out in the last 8 months. She is extremely smart, and loving and has no clue why people...
