So to start off with you’ll need a few materials such as shampoo. You can get certain kind of dog shampoo. You’ll need a large old cup and an old towel. Of coarse, you will need about a 3 foot long bathtub. You’ll also need a beaded dog brush and a powerful hair dryer.
Next, you’ll need to wash your puppy. Get your large old cup, fill it to the rim, and poor it on the puppy until she is completly wet. Get your dog shampoo and use 2 caps on the body, 1 cap on the head, and 1 cap on each set of legs. Rub it in real good. You’ll need to get the old cup, fill it to the rim of the cup again, then rinse off the puppy till he or she is completly clean.
