Ewwww - we might be able to stretch the time in between, but I don't think we can go half a year!
He obviously doesn't know that much about Yorkies. My friend told me that bathing Baby every week was too much too and bad for the skin, but I didn't listen either. Well, we haven't had a problem!!! I think people with Dogs that have fur and not hair get bathed a lot less. But every six months for a Yorkie? No way José! After a few days Baby starts looking like a mangy mutt.
