Warmth is the key to winter dog baths. Essentially, dogs should only be bathed when necessary, but that can be weekly for some dogs. Bathe in the morning in winter so that your dog is completely dry before nighttime, when it’s colder. Inside is always best in winter, even if you have a warm tap outside, dogs will be more comfortable inside. Use a shower head or beaker, lukewarm water, and do not put a plug in if using the bath to wash your dirty dog. Drying dogs thoroughly and quickly in winter is vital because it’s cold. The quickest and warmest way to dry a dog is with a Ruff and Tumble Drying Coat, which wicks wet from fur as it warms and dries the dog.
