Well, I shampoo my yorkie in the bath tub for year and my daughter cut her hair and she did fine because she has seizures and we could not take her to the groomer she would get so upset . She did just fine when we gave her a bath . She did not have and infections at all . So all depends I guess

I think this up to the pet owner what he or she would like to do . Pro and cons on this one . There are good groomers like you Canine and there are bad ones out there .

Just my thoughts
