| As far as I am concerned it is once a week her, no ifs ands or but on it. Most people I know do it the same way. Also only when they are dirty doesn't cut it, you'd be surprised when you bathed them and they still look pretty decent how filthy the water runs when they start being bathed. Hope this helps. |

| Usually every weekend,, need it or not,, Unless it's really cold out, but then it's about every 10 days. I just love when he's all soft and smells yummy.

| I bathe mine every week. She's a little monster, she gets dirty so often I'd rather bathe her more, but I know it's not good for their skin. So once week it is...

| Whenever she looks a little scruffy...hehe I try to get to it every week but it sometimes turns into every two weeks. She's an indoor dog so she stays relativley clean! BTW she loooves to be groomed. She'll stand on the counter where I groom her and she'll just look at me and stand still..she's such a good girl! And I really think she enjoys the way she feels after her bath..she'll run around the house like a mad woman and then calm down, too cute!

| During the summer, I bathed Olivia once a week. Now that it's colder (and she has major static!) I'm giving it 2 weeks between baths. She isn't nearly as messy looking after a week now that it's winter. |

| I give Gus a bath once a week but now that is't getting so cold, it's work and takes for ever to bathe him. I have to make sure there is a clean towel in the dryer for when he's done with his bath I have to turn on the portable hearter 15 mintues before hand to make sure the kitchen is warm enough. I may be sweating my butt off but Gus in warm and comfortable!

| Rocky gets a bath one a week usually on Fridays. But it has been rainy and mud he so he will be getting on sooner. |
