Can it be used to bathe my dog in the back yard to replace a long inconvenient garden hose?

I don't see why not! The hose is rated to be safe for drinking the water which passes through it so I would assume that it would be entirely safe to use for bathing your dog. As long as the water you are using is safe and clean then you should be fine! My only concern would be in regards to using hot water; if you were running hot water through the hose then it could potentially lead to toxic agents out of the hose material as the water passes through it. If the water is cold however, the leaching affect should not occur.

The hose is very sturdy and built well. Camco is a Recreation Vehicle accessories company. The main selling point of the hose is that it can be utilized to supply drinking water to an RV or trailer without making the water taste bad. But it would work fine in your garden as well. I have not left mine outside in the sun for long periods of time, so I don't know how well it holds up to the weather.

Nicely made hose. Even though it's suitable for drinking from, I needed it only b/c it is reported as being sturdy, and it was the right length for me. It's been great. I don't see any reason why you wouldn't find it fine for your purpose.

Yes, this is a high quality hose for all uses. You could pick a lower cost hose for light use, but this hose will perform well. What is nice about this hose is that the "taste" and "smell" of the hose are good for drinking water. The Dog will enjoy the lack of "bad smell".I do not recommend leaving this hose under pressure for long periods, or for use with HOT water. Only cold and under pressure for short times.

This is not big enough to be a dog pool. If you wanted to use it to bathe your dogs then I would certainly agree with that. I would recommend the uses for feeding large animals, holding water for drinking and to bathe dogs. It is highly durable as my horses have dragged it all over the place and it is still holding well.

We have a 5 setting "spray attachment" we put on our hose and it works great for all kinds of applications so I wouldn't know why it wouldn't work for washing a pug. I use it for spraying down our patio and patio furniture, watering plants, filling our fountain reservoir etc. I like the way the hose coils and is small since it's attached to a water hydrant visible from our driveway.

The kit includes a spray nozzle and a length of vinyl hosing that hooks up to any regular water faucet. We phave a sink in our garage, so we can use warm water, but it would hook up to a hose bib as well. We love this tub because our dog is about 70 lbs and jumps right up into it (ours has the legs) and we don't have to lift her or bend over while washing her. For size appropriate for your dog go to the website. It is very thourough. Enjoy!

Should work. It washes well and fluids don't go through. If the dog just leaks a bit rather than letting it all go at once you should be fine. If the volume is high, you may get pooling and puddles.

This would work. It has different settings for the stream so I'm sure you could find one that would work. I have a corgi and sometimes I just use it on her paws for the mud. There is also one setting that makes it a very specific squirt.

I'm sure it would do a great job...this is superb stuff for my dog....I should bath him at least 2x/week to keep his delicate skin in good condition.

You could. But it's overkill for that purpose. The "RV" type hoses are meant to be used when supplying potable water. Normal garden hoses can leave a bad rubber taste in water and over time, break down and leave contaminants behind. So if just for watering the flowers then just get a cheap hose for that purpose.

the tub actually comes in two different sizes. one for the smaller dogs and of course one for the larger dogs. i really don't know the dimensions but it should be on the product ad. i would just recommend using out of the tub but putting the hose in the tub to drain. then the size of the tub doesn't matter. this will also probably let your hose last longer as it won't be bent or coiled anywhere while in use.

I bathed the dogs once in the batheroom with half of the booster tub inside the shower so the water could drain out. I think I was able to hook up the booster hose to the shower outlet after taking off the shower head.

I usually put it on my back porch and run the drain hose to a tree near the porch. I hook it up to a regular water hose to wash my dogs. I definitely use it outdoors, not inside, although I guess you could use it inside if you had a way to attach a hose to it to wash the dogs with and a place to put the drain hose to drain it out.

Yes you can but must understand it doesn't have an aerator and would spray and splatter like your garden hose would!!! We put ours on a bathroom sink and it splatters all over the mirror, counter, sink and me!

I used it to fix a leak in a pipe under the kitchen sink and it's been there for over a year. So I would think it would work on a garden hose. It's really sturdy.

Definitely. Mine is on my balcony. I saw a review from Jemma the Long hair Chihuahua on the internet regarding Piddle Place (you may want to Google her.) She inspired me to place it outside I have kennel runs in my office and I hook the valve on the Piddle Place to a standard garden hose and drain it down a central drain At home I just use the drain valve If your deck is not covered it might fill up with rain, but that would be the only issue If outside, you can probably save money on the bio treatments since odor might not be an issue, and you might use the garden hose trick to drain it somewhere other then the patio or your grass. I have recommended this to hundreds of my patients with new puppies and older dogs and they all give me great feedback. Good luck.

Don't know how wide your bathtub is but probably not. The legs stand rather far apart for stability. However, , we have a motor home with a large shower only. I stand the front of the dog tub in the shower and the back in the bathroom. The attaching drain hose is long and drains well without any leaks (the drain is located at the back end of the tub). This has turned out to be a really great product and I use it regularly to bathe my three white Maltese.

Don't know, my shower has shower massage with hose. Plus I placed unit inside shower to wash dog. If not to messy. Do not have dog anymore, so donated bath to dog kennel. You can add hose to it.

The bracket to replace height depends on how much of the pipe from the wall that the old shower head was attached to was. The longer the pipe, the lower the nozzle. The hose would easily wash a dog. If loose, mine hangs just short of the tub bottom. Hope this helped.
