| sticky icky beard Well now that Peanuts hair is getting longer, I am having a hard time keeping him clean!! How do you guys keep their faces looking good and smelling good in between baths? I give him a bath every Sun, but it only takes about 3 days and he starts looking a mess, stinking and his beard is all sticky!! I have some of that spray stuff that makes him smell better like Baby powder, and I brush him everynight!! When I take a baby wipe to him it just makes it worse and then his hair gets all wavey?? Come on ladies I know you guys have some tricks to the trade!!

| Do you give her weekly baths? and then like how many times do you wash her beard?

| Generally, weekly baths. Sometimes we do two. Depends on how messy she gets running around. I just need to wash the beard once a week in between baths.

| Thats a good idea.. I only feed him dry, but I give him yogurt and cottege cheese sometimes and that makes it all sticky! I have noticed also just in general his body looks dirty kind of.. maybe I am just super anal about it lol but there is nothing like how they look after the bath!!

| I only bathe Uni once a week or once every week and a half. When she comes in from a walk I give her a quick feet and butt rinse, if she needs it. Several times a day I do eye booger detail, and after meals I wipe her beard with a damp cloth or napkin. Sometimes the eye crustables get brushed out and that makes her look better too. That's it!

| I stand Missy at the sink or in the bottom of the tub, and squeeze a sponge of water over her beard. Then I'll give it a little comb out.
