I bathe Kaji every Sunday. He's 100% inside everyday, not by our choice. Still, he gets his weekly bath, and I will wash his face if it gets to musty (a combination smell of kibble and whatever naughty things he gets into). As long as you use a good dog shampoo, it will not harm them to be bathed weekly. JJ Baby shampoo is made to have a pH balance appropriate for a human babies skin, it's not balanced for furbaby skin/hair. Dog owners should really avoid human shampoos for their dogs. Just because it says gentle it doesn't mean it's gentle for furbaby skin.

Edited to add: As long as your babies skin and hair is healthy, I don't see why you would have to change your routine. If once every few months works for you go for it. Personally, I find that anything longer than a week makes Kaji's hair look a little greasy.
