I have no idea what a dog bath for the garden looks like, so my suggestion may be no help.
Could you not use the dog bath in your bathroom, so you don't have to cart buckets of hot water about?
I can quite see that getting a labrador in and out of the bath is a heavy job, but so is carting water.
Do your dogs like being bathed - would the labrador be willing to get in and out of the bath by himself? From bath-stool to stool perhaps?
