    My dog smells great!

    Bath time with our dog has always been the worst. We have to trap him in the downstairs shower and hose him off (while also being inside the shower getting wet ourselves), trying to prevent him from shaking the water all over us, which he always ends up doing. He ends up only moderately clean and still fairly stinky... so then a few days later I inevitably book an appointment at the groomer. It's a disaster.

    I recently tried the Barkbath. We got about this product from our PR team (they also rep Bissell) and I immediately had to try it on our dog. The instructions for assembly are quite clear but I still managed to fill the wrong tank with water. Once that was sorted, I cornered my dog and gave it a go. The product makes noise since you are basically washing and vacuuming him at the same time. My dog was trembling in fear but he (mostly) sat still!

    I will say I did not use enough towels. I'm glad I did it in the basement where we have cheap, wipeable flooring. My husband came to help me at one point and I ended up spraying him (accidentally?) repeatedly.

    In the end, the floor was quite wet but my dog was clean and just a bit damp. The smell of the shampoo that comes with it is very pleasant but subtle. I noticed days later that he still smelled good. He also looked softer and cleaner. I was very happy about that.

    Immediately after the experience he ran upstairs to my new white leather couch and rubbed himself all over it in retaliation.

    We will definitely use this in lieu of our shower method going forward. The only thing I didn't love about it was it involves two long hoses, which you have to position just right so there is nothing to stop the water or suction from flowing properly. It took me awhile to figure out. I would also worry about if mould would grow in there because of the moisture. But, time will tell!

    He's getting another "bath" with it this weekend. Such a brilliant idea!
