Well, I gave Dusk his first bath yesterday as he seemed a little constipated.
Needless to say the bath worked.

However since then he's developed this liking of water but instead of bathing his whole body he just sticks his head under the water in his water bowl occasionally and looks up through the surface at things, coming up now and again to breath. Its quite funny I must admit, maybe he thinks he's a crocodile :P

I'd never seem mine do that until I recently bought the fatty Beech, he does exactly like you said immersing his whole head and staying under for ages, well I couldn't hold my breath that long!
