Elevated bathing stand for in tub?

[PWCorgi]

Blah! I need to find some kind of elevated platform to put in my tub, to put Frodo on top of for baths.

It doesn't even need to be made for that purpose, just something that I can use to get him up off the bottom of the tub so I can clean his undercarriage better.

I've thought about buying a big rubbermaid container and putting rubber or some other material for better traction, but figured I would see if you guys had any better ideas before I tried that.

Friend uses a small pine end table she got for free on Kijiji. She actually cut the legs lower as it seemed a bit too high with her border collie standing on it. Throw a towel over the top for grip, and wash away!

Bernie fits nicely on our teak shower bench, but we have a relatively flat slate floor in our shower, no tub.

Before we moved to this house, I used a rubbermaid container for Dance. It worked well except that the lid would get full of water so I had to drain that seperately afterward. Plus, she couldn't shake off on it after the bath safely because it was just big enough for her. But otherwise it was fine. I had to use it for about a year. Hopefully someone else has a better solution though!

I was going to suggest a rubbermade tote too. What about a grooming table?

Thanks guys!

I worry about a grooming table being too wide and having the water drain all over the floor outside of the tub :/

This one is about $50, but you can google around. I just searched grooming tub grate.

Milk crates, zip ties, and a rubber mat??

I bet if I just put some holes in the rubbermaid it would work a lot like that grate! Awesome!

Thanks!
