2. Keep the water nozzle very close to the skin to allow the water to fully penetrate the coat.

Explanation

Keeping the water nozzle very close to the skin allows the water to fully penetrate the coat. This is because when the nozzle is close, the water pressure is higher, and it can effectively reach the skin and penetrate through the coat, ensuring thorough cleaning. If the nozzle is kept at a distance, the water may not be able to reach the skin properly, resulting in incomplete cleaning. Therefore, it is important to keep the water nozzle close to the skin for effective penetration of water through the coat.

3. Usually only one shampooing is necessary to get the dog really clean.

Explanation

This statement is not always true. The number of shampooings required to get a dog really clean can vary depending on factors such as the dog's size, coat type, level of dirtiness, and any specific skin conditions or allergies the dog may have. Some dogs may require multiple shampooings to thoroughly clean their coat and remove all dirt and debris. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that usually only one shampooing is necessary to get the dog really clean.

Submit
4. Before you begin to bathe the dog, there are a few things you need to take into consideration.  (Select three)

Explanation

The correct answer is to muzzle any dog that is scared or shows sensitivity in certain areas because it ensures the safety of both the dog and the person bathing them. It helps prevent any potential aggression or biting.

The answer to try to bathe at waist height, as this will be more comfortable for you is correct because it reduces strain on the person's back and makes it easier to reach and handle the dog during the bathing process.

The answer to be sensible about lifting the dog into the bath is correct because it emphasizes the importance of using proper lifting techniques to avoid injuring oneself or the dog. It is important to lift the dog with care and support their weight appropriately.

Submit
5. Rubbing and sneezing may indicate that the dogs do not like their new fragrance.

Explanation

Rubbing and sneezing are common behaviors exhibited by dogs when they are trying to get rid of an unpleasant smell or irritant. These actions can indicate that the dogs are not comfortable with or do not like their new fragrance. Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that the statement is true.

Submit
6. It is important that you make sure the water temperature is warm and comfortable to touch and not too hot, this can be done with your ______

Explanation

To ensure that the water temperature is warm and comfortable, it is recommended to use your elbow. The skin on the elbow is more sensitive to temperature than the skin on the fingers or hand. By using your elbow, you can accurately gauge whether the water is too hot or at the desired warmth. This prevents the risk of scalding or discomfort that may occur if the water is too hot.

Submit
7. Put a drop of mineral oil into each eye before the bath to prevent any eye irritation from the shampoo.

Explanation

Applying a drop of mineral oil into each eye before taking a bath can help prevent eye irritation caused by shampoo. Mineral oil acts as a protective barrier between the eyes and the shampoo, preventing any potential irritation or discomfort. This is particularly useful for individuals with sensitive eyes or those who have experienced previous eye irritation from shampoo. Therefore, the statement is true.

Submit
8. Breeds that absorb the water easily will take longer to wet down.

Explanation

Breeds that absorb water easily will not take longer to wet down. This statement contradicts the common understanding that breeds that absorb water easily would actually wet down faster. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

Submit
9. It is useful when rinsing dogs to use a ______ or ______ that will help you remove any dead hair from the dog's coat.

Explanation

A rubber brush or hound glove is useful when rinsing dogs because they help remove any dead hair from the dog's coat. The rubber bristles or the textured surface of the hound glove can easily catch and remove loose hair, ensuring that the dog's coat is thoroughly cleaned during the rinsing process. This helps to maintain the dog's overall cleanliness and hygiene.

Submit
10. Towel-dry the dog after moving it out of the bath.

Explanation

Towel-drying the dog after moving it out of the bath is not necessarily the correct action. It depends on the specific situation and the needs of the dog. Some dogs may require towel-drying to prevent them from getting cold, while others may prefer to air dry or use a blow dryer on a low setting. Therefore, the statement that towel-drying is always necessary is false.
