Well, i bit the bullet and decided to try this new Hydrosurge Rapid Bath. Now mind you, i have a pump, not city water. pressure is good, but city water is much better. i went to petsmart while it was on sale for 64.99 and purchased it. i must tell you, i am impressed. i too was skeptical about the thick coats of my gsd and my goldie. let me tell ya!! i did my gsd, lab/shepherd mix, and 2 pugs (my goldie was recently done at the grooming shop i work at), in about a 1/2 hour!!!! they smelled fresh, clean and were really super shiny. after i let them dry really well, i went over them with the furminator. storm looks like his coat is show quality. even my 11 year old lab/shepherd's coat looked like he was young again. it had a dull appearance. i really liked it. it was easy, less mess, my bathroom was nice and clean, and the hose was long enough to hook to my showerhead and i didn't have to bend over. the lather did get down to the skin. it really did power through storm's thick coat. even my fawn pug, who has a pretty thick coat also, it did the job. i especially like the fact that i do not have to shlep 4 dogs to the grooming shop and pay in the range of 200.00 for bath's every 6 to 8 weeks. this thing already paid for itself. for those of you who think it's a scam, see if you can try it for 2 weeks. petsmart told me if i'm not satisfied i can bring it back in 2 weeks no questions asked. at first i wasn't thrilled about using their shampoo, but it smelled beautiful with no coverup strong shampoo smell, just a nice clean fragrance with a hint (i describe it as baby powder). here is the demo's that they give you in the booklet that the rapidbath comes with.
not sure how long the sale is running sue, but i got mine yesterday. it's normally 69.99, but still very much worth it when you compare 42.00 for one grooming session!!!!
