Giving your bully a shower
I shower my dogs once a month. Walk in showers are the best but shallow bathtubs work too. In the winter I only do spot baths so they are not completely wet down. When it’s cold you never want to let your dog outside after a bath or shower they can get sick fast just like a person can. You don’t want to dry their skin too much either but it’s also important to keep them fresh and clean. I have a walk in shower I use because wet slippery 60 pound dogs are easy to drop trying to get them out of a bathtub not to mention bad for the back.
There is a conversion sprayer you can put over the bathtub nozzle to wash your baby in the tub. There are pictures of it below if you don’t have a walk in shower. This is ideal for that purpose. It works great too! Especially for babies and bulldogs that are smaller than normal. It worked good for my Nipsey because he was only 45 pounds and easy for me to pick up and put in the tub and take out. Larger bulldogs would be more of a challenge for this method. I got the sprayer on Amazon here is the link…

I use Chi shampoo for dogs. I love the way it smells. Here is the Amazon link for it.

Baby shampoo works great on puppies. Get the no tears formula for children. I clean their ears with Q-Tips (not to far into the ears) and check their feet for sores or hot spots. If I find any sores I treat those with Melaleuca Oil or Animax Ointment. If you get them used to being showered as babies you won’t have a struggle when they’re large adults. Here is the link for the ointment. You will need a vet to approve the purchase. https://www.chewy.com/animax-ointment-dogs-cats/dp/173384?utm_source=google-
