I also had to muzzle him to cut his nails.
If you have any ideas on coaxing him into taking a bath Id sure appreciate it. I try to stay calm ut I do end up pretty mad LOL

Check out the advice I gave in this thread:

Fear of Bathtub

If the dog absolutely needs a bath now I would see if you can find a self-wash place and take him there. Try NOT to force the issue at home or you set yourself back ... WAAAAY back.
