Best Grooming Tip Contest 2004

Bathing Tip

I have found that by using a fan type spray nozzle works the best for bathing animals. The fan sprayer is rectangular in shape that makes it easier to direct the stream of water around noses, eyes, and ears. Because the sprayer has no "grip" that you must press to activate the water flow and the fact that it can be cradled in between the thumb and index finger creates less fatigue on your hand. The water flows so that it pushes the water from the coat in a sheet and doesn't create more suds on areas that have already been rinsed as I found happens with some of the "jet" spray settings. I have calmed many of dogs by being able to gently rinse them with the fan sprayer. Happy Bathing.
