i am thinking about giving molly a bath just wondering r there any dog baths that will fit into my family bath and make it easier to reach the puppy in the bath my bath is very deep and my back will be broken trying to reach her any suggestions and tips really welcome

What about a baby bath Or perhaps the sink???

Mine gets bathed twice a week for she has a skin condition brought on by her heart tablets! So i know what ya mean about a breaking back and sash aint a pup!

hope you manage to find something suitable to stop yer back breaking!

Could you do her in the shower? I know several people here have reported their dogs actually following them into the shower. Alternatively, I find those shower head things for the bath tabs to be rather useful at the rinsing stage.

Personnally I tend to bath my younger dogs in the kitchen sink!! Adults are bathed in the tub but I use the shower head on them!

My boys come in the shower with me. I've got a little plastic stool that I sit on so I don't have to bend down to them. My shower has one of those hand held shower roses on a flexible pipe. Make bathing a breeze and the boys enjoy it.

I bought a baby bath from Asda (Walmart) as it has a plug in the base. It's less slippery than the full sized bath and allows a depth of water to be accumulated, without waste.
