Who does pooch bathing?

Who gives your pooch his/her bath, blow dry, brushing, haircuts, teeth brushing etc.

I do Jake (miniature Poodle) most of the time. I do everything. Woody (Labradoodle) has to wait till summer to go in the outside shower with me or go to the groomer.

Who has a big dog 70-75 lbs. and gives him/her a bath inside?

I can't believe I am thinking about doing this.

I just did Jake and I am exhausted.

I do both my mutts inside. Sometimes one will jump in the tub with the other - you wanna talk about a mess

My Lab/Hound is almost 100lbs. In summer he goes outside for bath. I have thrown him in tub in winter but its not pretty. He was abused animal once and he fears I am trying to kill him. Once I calm him, its not so bad.

My schnauzer tries to put up a fight but I just man-handle her and get it done.

That's exactly what I am afraid of. What do you do to keep him calm when drying him. I think he'll be fine during his bath, but the towel drying might be a huge challenge.
When Jake was just in the tub, Woody came in and was trying to get Jake to jump out and play. ( I was soaked because of their shenanigans) It really seemed as if he was teasing Jake. So I am not so sure I should even attempt this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

What did you do to calm him down?

I'd have a broken back if I did him in the garden tub.
At least it would get used.
