Using a shop vacuum and its accessories to groom a pet can help save money. Grooming bills can be greatly reduced or even eliminated, depending on the type of pet you have, by using a shop vacuum during the bathing of a dog. A shop vacuum is an invaluable tool to expedite the drying of a pet and the cleanup process after a bath.
Before wetting your dog, put the brush attachment on the vacuum's arm and gently stroke your dog with it. Doing this will extract loose hairs from your pet's coat. After emptying the vacuum, bathe your dog in the tub using a de-shedding shampoo, if available. After rinsing the shampoo off of your dog, let the water empty from the tub and then cover your drain to prevent any more hair from going into the pipes.
Once the drain is covered, replace the brush attachment with the vacuum's long, slender tube. Reverse the air-flow on the vacuum so that it will expel air rather than take air in. With the force of the air concentrated by the petite design of the attachment, you will then mimic what pet groomers often refer to as 'force drying.' Hold the end of the tube attachment about _ inch away from your dog's skin and slowly cover almost every inch of your pet's body with it, taking care not to expose your dog's ears, face or rectum to the force of the air's flow. The vacuum will blow excess water and additional loose hairs from your pet's coat.
When done force drying, your dog's fur will be merely damp to the touch. Once more, you will reverse the air-flow of the vacuum and replace the tube with the brush attachment. Repeat the process of gently stroking your dog with the brush attachment; repeating this step after the bath will remove any remaining loose hairs. At the end of this round of brushing, your dog will be expertly cleaned, ninety percent dry and ready to be set free from the tub.
Finally, keeping the drain covered, rinse the hairs clinging to the sides of the shower and tub down into the tub's basin. Remove the vacuum's brush attached and put the machine's squeegee attachment on the end of its long arm. Use the squeegee to remove the water and hair from the tub.
