Cat Grooming Bag - Soft Mesh Pet Bathing Bag for Dogs & Cats - Scratch & Bite Resistant for Bathing, Nail Trimming, Vet Exams & Injections - Perfect for Home Grooming & Veterinary Visits

I have a 4lb, 3 month old escape artist of a toy Pomsky pup who will squirm his way out of your arms if you’re trying to keep him still for anything. He has discharge in his right ear that the vet gave us a cleanser for. We had to squeeze liquid into his ear and clean with a cotton swab. He HATES it. Absolutely HATES it. He will squeal, growl, bite, scratch, and even risk falling onto the ground out of your grips to not have to deal with it at all, don’t worry we haven’t dropped him. Afterwards he won’t even let you touch him and you could tell he felt utterly betrayed. We struggled really hard the first week and was only successful maybe 2 times out of the 5 we had to do it. The smol guy is a big fighter. Because of this, his ear got worse and now the vet is having us apply the cleanser in the morning and a medication at night, using the same process, to BOTH ears, over the span of. 10. Days. Twice. A. Day. We dreaded having to do it, it was almost impossible the first time around and now we have to do it for 10 more days, twice a day?!.. I did some research on the best ways to restrain a puppy for these things and came across this grooming bag. I figured it was worth a shot. First day of trying it out, we put him in one of his thicker puffy jackets in case he would squirm too much and hurt himself. When putting him in, we didn’t put his legs through any of the leg holes. We also muzzled him. We sat on the floor, I secured his torso in my arms, and held his head still with my hands while my boyfriend applied the medication and cleanser and oh my god, this worked brilliantly. We’re so thankful for this product. Given he refused to let us touch him afterwards and had a mini panic attack for a few seconds after we took everything off, but nothing a cut up strawberry and a nap didn’t fix afterwards. Now he’ll start to whine when he sees us with the bag and the muzzle coming towards him, but he’s accepted defeat and lets us put everything on without much trouble. He still puts up a fight once the medicine and cleanser is put into his ear. He freaks out even more when the cotton swab goes in, but this has made our lives so much easier and it feels great to know we can take care of his ear problem easier.
