| Teeth Brushing? Bathing? I'm going to pick up my new yorkie in a few weeks, and I was wondering how often their teeth should be brushed? And how often they should be bathed? I don't plan on keeping her hair long and "show like", I like the look and easier maintenance of the "puppy cuts" |

| Baths probably shouldn't exceed once a week on average. Optimally, teeth should be brushed 1-2x daily.

| I bathe my yorkie once a week and brush her teeth every night before bed.

| When she is more active like spring, summer and fall I bather about once a week, and I brush her teeth before the bath and treat them with orvavet. In winter I mostly bathe her on an as need bases because she doesn't get as dirty. Mine has the puppy cut. Callie chews on bones a lot or I would brush her teeth more often then weekly.
