| How often do you bath your baby? I give Roxy a bath once a week. She is good for them and loves to be clean. It has now started to get chilly here. What do I do to make sure she don't get sick or should I not bath her as much?

| I bathe Madeleine once a week. If I don't the hair on her head starts to look greasy.

| I was bathing Ollie once a week at least ---sometimes more since he loves to get dirty in the back yard!!!! But now that he cant dry in the warm sun and air i use my blow dryer at the low heating till i am sure he is completely dry then i put a shirt on him. He gets very impatient getting dried but a bully stick seems to help! Oh and i also have been putting his towel in the dryer and then wrap him in the nice warm towel when the bath is over. |

| I wash them every week to week in a half. Mine don't mind the dryer, so I blow dry them, so they won't get cold and sick.

| Roxy don't like the blow dryer. Now that is it getting cooler maybe she will like it. If Roxy don't get a bath she looks like we would with greasy hair. I feel so bad for her. I don't want her to look like a dirt ball. You can def tell the difference after a week on her.

| Once every one to two weeks depending on how stinky she gets.

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | My babies get bathed every week, on Sunday. There are times though I will admit where I slack off a little Sometimes I am a few days late at getting them bathed, but they don't mind

| Chip gets a bath once a week, usually after the park. Otherwise if I don't give him a bath once a week, he gets really stinky. Since he has short hair, giving him a bath more than that combined with the weather would make his skin really dry. He doesn't like the blow dryer, so I will try the towel fresh from the dryer tip. |
