# gang up your dog and treats. Clip your leash on the dog and lead him near the powder room.
# Step one foot away from the open washroom door. approval your dog, click (if you clicker train), and treat. do again lots of treats and approval for about two minutes.
# Duplicate this every day, 3 times. Every day, get one foot closer to the tub. Make sure you redo him lots of pats ‘n applause.
# effectively get your dog close to the tub. Get your dog about 1 fooadequately from the tub. Repeat the above steps, except come to the same spot 3 times a day for one week.
# Get your dog into the tub. Click, kudos, reward, treats, etc. Do this 5 times a day for 1 week. Do not try to rerun your dog a bath while doing this, as this just helps your dog to know he gets treats for going into the tub.
# moderately turn on the water. If your dog freaks, help him calm down, and do again him lots of treats. Try to continue bathing your dog.
