Smokey gets a bath every 8 weeks when he goes to the groomer. We are at about 6+ weeks right now and he still has that delicious 'new puppy' smell. I comb him every other day and wipe his face and winky with a damp washcloth when he needs it. He is extremely 'active' and since I dont have the equipment or knowledge that the groomer does, I will continue to leave all this in her very professional hands. I think we will continue to do a modified puppy cut.. he looks really tough a little punked out. :>)~
Though I used to cut all of my sighthounds' claws (up to 16 paws at a time and no bleeders), I can't see myself trying to wrestle Smokey into submission long enough to do his.
