Before You Get Started
Helpful Tips to Get Ready:
• Always use a BISSELL no-rinse dog shampoo.
• If your dog has long hair, brush your pet’s hair
before bathing.
• When selecting an area to bathe your
dog, choose a place where your pet feels
comfortable and safe. Usual choices include the
kitchen, utility room, garage, or family room.
• Lay down a separate blanket or towel where
you will be bathing your dog.
• When placing the cleaner on the floor, place a
mat or towel underneath. This will help absorb
and dampen the sound for your dog.
• Keep the cleaner away from walls and
cabinets to facilitate sound reduction.
Some dogs are sensitive to loud noises, or are not fans of vacuums or other
loud appliances. Here are some quick training tips to help your dog have a great
experience with this new bathing method.

Training Steps—Phase 1
- Place the unit in a room where you plan
to bathe your dog. Leave the cleaner
turned off and allow the dog to become
accustomed to it.
- With the unit turned off, have the dog
walk over to the unit and use the spray
nozzle as a “comb” to brush the dog.
This will allow the dog to associate good
feelings with the cleaner.
- Praise your dog and offer a treat.
Training Steps—Phase 2
- With the dog out of the room, turn the
unit on. Leave the unit on and offer your
dog a treat.
- Turn the unit off.
- Repeat phase one above.
Training Steps—Phase 3
- Turn the unit on, have your dog enter the
room and give the dog a treat.
- With the unit on, and without pulling
the trigger to release water, “comb” your
dog’s fur with the spray nozzle.
- Turn the unit off and offer a treat.
Training Steps—Phase 4
- Turn the unit on. Have your dog enter
the room.
- Comb a small section of your dog’s fur
with the unit on and pull the trigger in
quick, short bursts to acclimate your pet
to feeling the solution on their skin.
- Once the area is fully wetted and water
extracted, your dog’s bath is complete.
Praise your pet and offer a treat.
