How To wash your dog
Fill the tub with warm water, shut the door (because the last thing you need is to be chasing a muddy dog down the hallway) and saturate your dog with water. Use the cup to spoon water over the dog's back and over its face.
..:::How To Pet
Lather your pet with affection after re-establishing your presence with him. Even if he does not return the strong affection right away, it will give him the sense that you love him. Continue to pay strong attention to him for the first week that you are with him.
Begin commanding your pet as you typically would before you left. Use the same commands and the same tone of voice. Even if you feel like being soft because you haven’t seen her in a long time, it is important that you reinstate your place as soon as you arrive home. She should respond typically, although it may take her a few days to respond as quickly as usual.
Fall into the same routine that you had before you left. Feed your pet at the same time; walk him at the same time; give him treats for the same tricks. If you slept with him before, sleep with him again. If you crated him before, crate him again. Returning to his old routine will help him learn to trust you.
