I agree that bathing weekly is a good idea for dogs but it is really important to use an all natural brand of shampoo and conditioner. Most commercial brands have sulfates and other chemicals in them that strip the skin and coat even though they do have synthetic conditioners in them. Oatmeal is usually in such a small amount that it is really not effective in helping skin conditions. It's just another sales ploy to sell more product. Oatmeal actually helps dry skin anyway. |
