I have had Lillie for 3 weeks coming Sunday (she's about 16 weeks old) and have given her a bath once a week (this includes her grooming trip we made last Saturday). Her bath days are on Saturday, so far but I'm wondering if its too much?

I know Yorkies have sensitive skin so I don't want to dry her out but its been raining NON stop in Dallas and we go outside to potty and she gets all muddy. Also, I was feeding her some Nutri-Cal and the oils accidentally spilled on her causing her little fur to be super greasy. Her nick name this week is "Greaser" haha.

I just want to make sure I'm not overdoing it with the bath time but I want her to be a clean little pup while remaining 'natural'.....any ideas/advice?
