| Baths Just wondering how often you bathe your babies? Stormy's hair is growing quickly and sometimes after she goes to the bathroom she needs some cleaning up and cleaning up her face too. So I find myself washing her up a bit each day. But just curious to know how often you do a full out bath? Also what are some good shampoos to use? |

| I use a really gentle shampoo, Royal Jelly by Isle of Dogs and wash as often as needed. Usually once a week, but often her face and paws get a midweek rinse and wash. I also use detangler to keep mats away.

| I bathe my 2 once a week and just started using Perfect Coat French Vanilla Shampoo and have always used the Perfect Coat Detangler and Conditioner.

| In the summer I dont bathe as often because they swim in the pool a lot. In the winter I try to do it every other week. If their hair is longer, every week. I use Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo. It helps with the mats a lot. I actually just try to keep them in a short puppy cut year round to help them stay smelling cleaner for longer.

| I have been using the baby shampoo to wash her and I have given her a bath 3 or 4 times now since I've gotten her and I've had her for a month. Her hair is growing so I think the detangler is a good idea to get! Thanks for the responses I thought maybe I was bathing her too often because my mother thought so. |
