    Can I give my pregnant Shih Tzu a bath?
    My 2-year-old Shih Tzu is in her fourth week of pregnancy. Pet Smart won't groom her because they say she's likely to abort if she gets a bath. This seems a little bizarre to me, and my dog really needs a bath. Is there any safe way for me to bathe my dog while she's pregnant?
