Waterpik Pet Wand Pro Dog Shower Attachment, 2.5 GPM

My 13-year-old dog (~60 pounds) is not a fan of baths in general, but as she has gotten older, I have been more reluctant to take her to the groomer or self-bathing stations at pet stores, because she's gotten more skittish with being in a strange environment. I don't have a detachable showerhead so I never thought it would be feasible to bathe my dog at home until I saw this product. Installation was incredibly easy, and there was remarkably good water pressure that allowed me to bathe my dog quickly and easily. I appreciate the shape of the pet wand; it truly does allow you to cover a lot more ground at once! For anyone else with a larger, older dog and a shower/tub combo, I would just recommend My 13-year-old dog (~60 pounds) is not a fan of baths in general, but as she has gotten older, I have been more reluctant to take her to the groomer or self-bathing stations at pet stores, because she's gotten more skittish with being in a strange environment.

Just hooked it up last night so I haven't actually used it on our dogs so I can't comment on about that part. I will say that it leaks at every connection, and yes I used Teflon tape that doesn't help. The water will not completely shut off when the dial is closed on the wand so keep it in the tub while washing dog. It needs tweaking by the manufacturer before I could rate it higher.

I must say that this is the BEST solution to bathing our Golden Retriever EVER! Woody is our 6th Golden and at one time we had 4 Goldens that all loved to swim in our pool. We (I) struggled to bathe all 4 dogs after every swim. There was just no easy way other than to put each of them on the grooming table and struggle with the stiff hose and less than helpful nozzle. The Waterpik Pet wand has made all of the difference. Bath time is a no brainer! With the full wand option, I can easily wet down Woody's back, belly and his beard. With the half wand option, the water is more intense and makes quick work of rinsing head, ears, paws, legs and full force focus on his tail.

Kudos to whoever came up with this innovative way to bathe dogs! I wish I would have thought of it !! I like it so much that I have purchased another one as a gift and will be doing it again for our Golden Retriever Club Holiday gift exchange. GREAT GIFT ITEM!! Thanks Waterpik and Chewy!!! … more

I wish I had purchased this years ago. Our large elderly golden retriever tolerates her outside baths with a regular hose end sprayer, but it’s still a chore to get her retriever fur completely wet and rinsed. The pet wand covers a larger area and water penetrates through her thick fur, reducing bath time. Less standing for her and less stooping for me makes for a happy dog and a happy human.

My puppies love water but they don’t enjoy baths in the bath tub or the shower, they like to have their baths outside because they love to play with water. I used to use the regular hose but it was time consuming, I would have to rinse them multiple times because their hair is thick and kinda long, but with this attachment it makes it so easy, the water just gets through it and now we can have clean pups in just minutes!

This worked really well for a long time but it did break at the showerhead attachment site when I was trying to adjust the shower head (not the wand part - the regular shower head for human use).

Hose length is fantastic and the volume of water through the wand provides for excellent rinsing. Only down side is that the water control knob does not shut the water off completely.

This was very easy to install. Just make sure you have plumbers (sealer) tape. Used it first on my five month old wiggly lab puppy. Worked like a charm. This was money well spent! Easy to use and both of my dogs did great with it. If I had to buy again, I would.

I bathed my 8 dogs in 2 hours. The shape fits across the dogs backs & bellies and rinses very well. Shortened bathing time which helps my back! Particularly with the corgis!

I was looking forward to using this shower wand for cleaning my dog and foster dogs who often arrive needing a bath. After months of failing to make time for an install, I got around to it, and it was fairly straightforward. However, when putting the showerhead back on to the flow diverter, I tightened the showerhead so much that the diverter twisted and broke. I hope to get a replacement part from the manufacturer to try again. So, if trying this purchase, just be sure to clamp the diverter to make sure that it doesn't twist (and break) when tightening your showerhead onto the assembly.
