I'd use the sink for now then try the water shower or sink on your elbow or inner wrist if it's too hot you'll feel it there xx

We bathed Bane in the sink when he was little just to wash his paws! Tried not to wash the rest of him until he was a bit older.

I bath Daisy in the shower, when he's bigger it works well because you shut the door and they can't get out!  Laughing you need a matt though or they can't stand up! As I found out the first time!

they have a body temp a few degrees above ours so can take it a lil warmer but as a rule of thumb whatever is good for a human baby is good for a pup/adult. elbow test it and if it feels hot drop the temp down a bit, luke warm is fine.
