Also, do you just dry them with a towel or use a blow dryer on low (no heat)??

Also, (last question I promise!) how often do you bathe your pup? I want him to look clean and fluffy but I don't want to dry his coat out. Thanks for all your help!!!
You can bathe them after their first inocculations. Between 8 and 9 weeks. Bathe with a good puppy shampoo such Bio Groom Fluffy Puppy; it's soapless shampoo. You brush them while you blow dry them. I'm sure that you have been clipping their little nails and trimming their ears and butts. Once you begin the grooming process it should be done on a weekly basis. To keep them clean and of course to get them use to the grooming process.
