I thought I had read somewhere that bathing them too much can be harmful and drying. I bathe Zoey every other weekend, brush her thoroughly nitely, wash her face with a warm washcloth nitely, occasionally have to take care of a poo problem with a puppy wipe, and wash her privates with a warm washcloth about every 2-3 days.

I have not had any problems with smells or with her itching or having any problems at all.

However, if I am incorrect and should be giving her more baths, PLEASE tell me - I am a new mommy and want to do this right!!
