| I give Abby a bath about every 3 weeks-1month (she's still a puppy). She does't like baths so to make them shorter i use garnier fructis leave in conditioner once she's out. then brush and blow dry her everytime. Question... I know that when they are puppies you shouldn't bath them to often, b/c they can't produce the oil-stuff (i'm not sure what its called??) fast enough. But when should you start bathing them more often?

| Miko and Emma get bathed every 10-14 days. They don't go outside much, so they never really get dirty. I use shampoo and conditioner everytime, unless I use Minksheen. I always blow dry their hair. And I use Bless the Beasts Fur Polish Pomade after their baths sometimes...

| Zada gets a bath once a week. She has a silky coat that's never oily. Azrael is bathed every fourth day because she tends to be a bit oily. She has the cotton coat. They get a hot oil treatment once a month during the summer and on bath days in the winter. I use shampoo and conditioner, plus a spray that makes brushing a snap. I only use a blow dryer (low setting) in the winter if it's cold. I prefer air dry while brushing. |

| usually once a week, right now about every week and a half because they got summer's cuts because of the heat. We use Minksheen, so no conditioner. No blow-dry here, just air dry. I do blow dry in the winter when their hair is longer and it is cold out.

| It's like a leave-in conditioner/oil type product You only need to put a drop in your hands, rub them together and put it on their hair. It works really well, but I'm going to be giving almond oil a try. http://www.blessthebeasts.net/btb_online.html

Therapy Dog Donating Member | I'm the one that said whenever she is dirty which is funny cause it's at least once a week or twice a month - depending on what she gets into. Izzy has silky hair and when I do give her a bath I use the almond shampoo and conditioner with blow dryer. JB Pet golden almond shampoo I use and the condition and spray.
