Only shampoo not more than twice a month and use a very mild shampoo and a good conditioner. Their undercoat is shed once or twice a year, but they do shed all the time, which makes brushing important. You can even use a dry shampoo when necessary.

Thanks, I do brush Bandit taht way and he has only been bathed two times I think since I got him last July, he does not smell stink at all and his coat is lovely. I brush bandit sometimes every day depending on how much grass he rolls around in or sometimes 3 to 5 times a week. Bijour the same every second day, his hair is just brittle. I will do the misting, I had not done this before. I use what is called a slicker brush is that the same as pin?
