It is only hard to give a dog a bath if you haven't trained the dog to be bath-friendly or if the bath isn't the correct temperature.

Baths are not natural to dogs, they are content with jumping in rivers and lakes, so you will have to teach your dog to sit still in the bath, using commands and keeping treats nearby to give afterwards.

Make sure the water isn't too high (up to their knees is high enough). Make sure it isn't too hot or too cold, it should be lukewarm - dogs are smaller so they feel hot and cold stronger than we do. It may also help to talk to your dog in a reassuring voice throughout the bath. Consider a training course or a training book.
