Developed by the founders of the National Dog Registry, tattooing is a simple, affordable means of permanently identifying your dog. It is painless to a dog because as dog’s skin structure is so different from a human’s that the tattoo marker doesn’t need to be inserted very deeply into the dog’s epidermis, or outer skin layer. The best location for an identification tattoo is the inside of the thigh, where the hair is sparse and the numbers are readily seen.
Microchipping is another common way for vets and other pet professionals to identify your dog if he is lost. Read more on microchipping.

try keeping the leash on your dog do you can control it and take baby steps until your dog gets used to it. Also using a sprayer like ones you attach to your shower head help so you dont have to put much water in the tub if any... especially if your dog is small! Hope this helps!
