I have had my lily girl for 1.5 yrs. I have always given her a bath once a week maybe every 1.5 weeks. How much is too much bathing? Since we have moved to Japan I feel like I need to bathe her more often. Her tears have gotten worse and has more tear stains that I CAN NOT get out no matter what. She is white in the face so its really easy to see. I use baby shampoo for her face and that doesn't seem to be working anymore. She also smells bad quicker than usual. I don't know what else to try that is safe for her. Also, she is not allowed to go outside for a few more months here since she is under quarantine (international rules) so it cant be the environment too much can it?? I don't have this problem with Taka but he was also born here in Japan so it might not affect him as much. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
