Another way to bath them if you live in the PNW, just throw them outside for 5 mins for the prewash. Open slider and squirt out some soap (hopefully they are still sitting at the door wanting to get in) Let them try to rub the soap off by rolling in the grass (they think they are getting the soap off, in reality the soap is being scrubbed in. Then tease them with the promise of treats so they stand by the slider and the rain rinses them off. Open slider, in come bullies.... and towel them off. Put them in front of the fire for some dry time.
