We can’t all shell out for our dog to have their own personal shower (although they’re pretty neat). A more budget-friendly and portable option is to add a dog shower head to your own bath or garden hose instead.
Grooming at home has its advantages, including helping dogs who may be anxious about the process feel a little more comfortable. A dog shower head is a fantastic tool in your home grooming collection, and there’s a large variety from which to choose: some attachments can connect indoors to showers as well as outside to hose connections; others are made for sink faucets; still others are self-contained and don’t need to attach to anything but a body of water. There’s very little fuss or cleanup involved, leaving you free to spend more quality time bonding with your best fur buddy.
When purchasing a dog shower head, keep your dog’s size and the item’s ability to connect to a water source in your chosen location in mind. Also, note that sprayers are generally not meant for use on puppies under 12 weeks or for pregnant or nursing dogs. Always check with your vet if you have questions.
The Best Dog Shower Heads
The next time your dog needs their regular bath, takes a roll in the mud or, heaven forbid, develops a flea problem, spray them down with their very own dog shower head attachment. Read on for our picks.
Aquapaw Pro Grooming Tool (Verified Review)
It’s a shower head and bathing glove for your dog all in one! Strap this rubber-bristled sprayer on your hand and massage pet-safe shampoo deep into your pup’s fur with soft silicon nubs. Just touch the button on the side to click the water flow on or off—and choose between two flow pressures to make rinsing suds a breeze. Best of all, it’s adaptable for the tub or the yard. Our test pups definitely thought the Aquapaw was an upgrade to bath time, and our human tester appreciated the ease of use.
Waterpik PPR-252 Pet Wand Pro for Dogs
Come bath time, attach this dual-pressure device to your bathroom shower or outside garden hose. The curved wand shape is especially effective for furry friends with super thick hair. In addition to adapters and a hose, this dog shower head also comes with a suction cup hook so you can hang it up when you need both hands.
Ivation Handheld Portable Shower Head
Take your dog’s bath on the road with this portable shower head kit. There’s a water filter at the end of the hose; just put it in a tub of water (or any water source) and bathe your dog for up to 60 minutes. A suction cup hook is included for convenience. The rechargeable battery connects via USB to your most convenient power source.
ConairPro Deluxe Pet Washer
Your dog can take a shower indoors or out with this shower head that comes with two connectors and two spray settings—full body and cone shape curtain. A detachable rubber-nubbed face helps with shampoo scrubbing—or just giving your anxious bather a nice massage.
Wondurdog Deluxe Dog Wash Kit
This dog shower head is made with a stainless steel hose, making it a durable choice for bath time. Rubber teeth scrub fur clean while built-in valves on the connectors control water pressure. (Note that’s on the deluxe version, shown here. There are additional Wondurdog sprayers, including a shower head for sinks and smaller dogs, plus versions for outdoor use.) The splash shield helps keep the water where it belongs—on your dog!
