I have heard good things about Pet Silk Pet Silk Detangling Mist - PetSupplies.com
Isle of Dogs products are great, too. There is also a brand by the name of Pet Head that has a good spray conditioner and shampoo and conditioning rinse.
I take Gracie out for her morning walk and then bathe her. She is 5lbs. I do blow her dry but she has a full long coat. She has never had a problem using the same blow dryer that I use on my hair. I just put her on my lap and comb and blow dry. You just want to make sure the temp is not too hot. In the winter I turn the heat up a little to keep her comfortable. Even though I blow her all the way dry I wait at least 4 hours before I will take her outside in the cold. She wears a warm coat. Baths have never interfered with her going outside except if there is a storm or something. She is also puppy pad trained so that if the weather is really bad with deep snow I don't have to take her out. If she really wants to go out after a snow storm I have to shovel an area for her to walk in. She is just to small to manage the deep snow. |
Thanks for your help. I will be more considerate toward the idea of bathing her in the cold winter months...So I'm reading a lot of people saying that they bathe their yorkie once a week...? I can't imagine that it would be good for his skin, but that's why I'm asking ya all... Also, no offence but I'm not a pee pad person lol. I know this subject matter stirs things up but know that I'm not judging you as a negative doggy owner...I just mentioning it because using a pee pad after I bathe Boo is never ever ever an option for us. Thanks again...
