I've never had one act like that either but if I did I would close the
windows so that the neighbors didn't think I was murdering a dog, and just get
on with it. He's a big boy now, if his antics get to the point where he is
going to hurt either himself or you, put a prong on him and let him self
correct. For the dryer, it helps to put the table in a corner, so that he
can't go backwards or to one side for that...I have had adults here (not
mine) who were stupid about getting nails dremeled...funny, a prong, a soft
nylon muzzle and ignoring their antics works wonders. I just refuse to argue.
No treats...what did he do to be good?????

Hopefully someone can offer a suggestion. My 8 month old boy is Terrified
of a
bath. We have had him since he was 3 months old and he literally "freaks
out"
when you try to bathe him. He is climbing out of the tub, trying to climb
the
walls, etc. He mostly hates when you turn the sprayer on to rinse him. It
takes
2 people to give him a bath. I have never had a dog that acted like this
in the
tub before. We have tried giving him cookies, treats, just letting him
stand in
the tub without turning on the water..He also hates the dryer just as
much. I
don't know what to do, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Now
he will
lay on the floor and let you use the dremel on his nails without an issue.
Go
figure! HELP, He has his 1st dog shows this weekend!
