| To much bathing? Tank pees all over himself right now and smells bad. Can I bath him every 3rd day or so if I use a mild shampoo and conditioner? A washing on the belly doesnt seem to cut it for much longer than 2 days. |

| I believe bathing any more than once a week can dry out their skin.

| I have to bath Stormy every few days with a wee bit of dawn on her belly legs cause she lays down on her pee pads in the kennel (even though she does have a bed in there) |

| I used a wash cloth last night but i guess I dont get all the spots on his bod that got hit. He still smelled, just not as much. Another big bummer- his hair grows REALLY slow. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | You might try bathing using a conditioner instead of shampoo, this will not try out the hair or skin. Make sure you rinse well, and I hope his manly hairs grow out soon, an inch can make such a difference.
