Definitely don't need to bath more than once every 2 weeks. I use johnsons 2 in 1 anti tangle shampoo and conditioner for Molly, which has improved her fur lots..it has a nice sheen to it now. Dont worry if your little one doesnt smell like a baby all the time in between baths...she is allowed to smell like a doggy sometimes! I love the smell of mollys feet...a mixture of cheese and grass!!
