Bentley is 10 weeks old. He has dandruff pretty bad. I was told not to give them too many baths when they are young because they can be stressful for them and also dry out his skin even more. Is this true? How often do you give your yorkie a bath? I was also told that I could just use Head and Shoulders or Selson Blue. Is this ok for them? I recently bought Perfect Coat, Natural Oatmeal shampoo. The pet store recommended this. Any other suggestions? What do you use to clean them in the bath? I have given him one bath so far and just used my hands to rub in the shampoo-this ok???
Thanks!
