My Cairn Terrier runs around the house like a crazy pup after his bath. It is real funny to watch. Why does he do that?

A lot of dogs will do that after a bath. They're normally just excited but it could be from not getting all the shampoo rinsed off or they might have water in their ears if you notice them rubbing their head on the floor. If that is the case, just put cotton balls in her ears before giving her the bath.

i dont have an answer but i have a 5 year old bulldog and a 2.5 year bull terrier that do the same thing they have been doing it since puppies they run crash their heads on the floor rubbing their heads for like 5 feet across the floor and your right it is very funny

I'd say nearly all dogs do this.
They feel fresh and frisky for lack of better words. If you only got bathed one or twice a month wouldn't you want to run around wild after getting not only a bath, but a finger massage all over your body? =)

My dog used to do that. I think it's because a bath is stimulating all over, and they like to run off the excess energy. They also feel refreshed and relaxed, which is energizing. It's really funny.

Probably trying to dry his fur off or maybe he just loves feeling clean.
My min pin does a crazy dance after a bath. It's hysterical.

He's just excited. Most dogs do that, its easier to deal with in a small dog then with my Old English Sheepdog!

because most puppies love baths. i guess its like an energy boost. sadly they will calm down when they get older and you will miss that. just enjoy it while you can.
