Thanks everyone for the great advice. I've written this down in her "Tink's Book" so I don't forget next time - please Lord don't let there be a next time.
Be careful with bathing her every day. it may be too much for her skin. start with weekly and then if that's not good enough drop it down to every 6 days, 5 days, etc... so that you can see if her skin starts getting really dry at a certain number of days. remember to condition her each time since she's getting washed so often. personally i like to use whatever shampoo i like and then condition with an oatmeal based conditioner on dogs that come in for weekly baths. I like espree products and that's what we use in the shop.
