What defines a bath?

I found Jersey sleeping with his belly up in the air and all over on top of the water dish. I picked him up and wiped him as dry as I could before placing him in a more dryer part of the puppy area.

So, as I was drying him I was thinking, this could very well be his very first bath.

But, what defines a bath? Is it from being completely emerged in water or could you be partially drenched in water? Does soap need to be always involved? Do you have to be dirty to have a bath? I guess what I am trying to figure out is, was this Jersey's first bath? Him getting his back all wet and being dried off from sleeping in his water dish?

  1. What I want to know is how the heck a puppy can fall asleep on top of a water dish?! Wouldn't it be wet and uncomfortable? I guess if you gotta sleep, you gotta sleep ... and bathe, it seems. Pretty efficient, I'd say - soap or no, this guy came out cleaner than he went in, and in my books, that counts as a bath!

    I thought it was pretty odd too but he was happily sleeping away, and there was water still available in the dish. So he was indeed sleeping in water. As a result, his back was all wet.
