| ![]() I bathe Fido every friday ![]() But when he's shaved down, I bathe him every other friday cause he gets less dirty with short coat ![]() When he has very long coat I bathe him every 5-7 days. He has very thick coat, not cottony, just very very thick silky coat (he has the same kind of fur as my friends shih tzu! very weird, but her shih tzu has weather proof coat ,not my yorkie,but its not cottony). I always use conditioner, dog conditioner ![]() I use the Pet Silk products. I shampoo him twice with Pet Silk Rainforest Shampoo, and condition him once with Pet Silk Rainforest Conditioner, after the bath (before I dry the coat) I spray all over him Pet Silk Rainforest Leave-In Conditioner ![]() ![]() And afterwards (If he has to look extra nice) I put 1-2 drops of Pet Silk Liquid Silk Serum in his coat, it turns so SHINY when I do that! and it straightens the coat completily! Pet Silk products are the best I know of ![]()

| ![]() mine are once a week or once every two weeks in the winter. they both have allergies and both get dry skin so in the winter we bathe less and less and in the summer we bathe off the allergens more often. we use allergroom shampoo. soap free hypoallergenic and no conditioner, although maybe we should. best bet is to bathe when they get smelly ![]() |

| ![]() I bathe my guys every two weeks, but they really don't have doggie odor then...I believe it's because I feed raw...I remember Apple smelling a little musky, after about a week, before raw, but now she and the other two, don't smell bad, but their hair gets oily....I bathed them last night ![]() |

| ![]() I have had Bella since the 14 of September and I have not bathed her yet. She only goes out to potty and she is not dirty. She sleeps in the bed with me and she smells fresh. I brush her twice a day and wash her eyes and always check her hiney. I have had other breeds of dogs and they went to the groomers every 3 months. I was always told to bath a dog too much would dry their skin and coat out. |

| ![]() I was wondering the same thing recently, I do Harley every 2 weeks, sometimes he can get a bit longer if he isn't outside. But he's a rough little feller for sure, he loves the water and mud. I use Isle of Dogs products, shampoo and conditioner. I love it cause it comes in a black coat enriching formula. You have to dilute it, but other than that, it's simple to use, and lasts forever with these little guys.

| ![]() I say give them a bath as needed depending on how dirty or smelly they are. I give Bentley a bath once every two weeks but if his been real active out side once a week. Sometimes I even just use deodorizer on him if I recently bathed him and he is smelly. |
