I started out with bathing Cash every week. Someone told me to never use a conditioner on a dog and if I could find that person now, I would give them a piece of my mind (Cash's coat was hideous and I had to cut it off!). I now use a conditioner and a supplement for show dogs and his coat is great now.
I still give him a bath once a week (actually gave him a bath today) since he is a messy little guy.
His coat and skin isn't dry and he looks great now. I now they say not to use a human shampoo or conditioner, but I do. I use Johnson & Johnsons baby shampoo with eucalyptus oil (for the fleas) and Pantene's Smooth and Silky conditioner.
He looks great now!!
