| How often should I bathe her? I'm sure this has been answered before, so please excuse me! I did a search but couldn't find anything exact. I bought Pet-Silk shampoo, conditioner and cologne for Honey Child - I'm just wondering how often I should bath her? And should I use both shampoo and conditioner each time? TIA! |

| Some bathe every week. Lucy goes to the groomer every two weeks. I bath her more during the summer because she goes swimming so much

| I normally try to give a bath once a week...no matter how long the hair is. I also, do inbetween washings on their private areas and face/beard, when needed. I never use cologne, I have some, but love the way the shampoo smells. Oh, I also seem to do more grooming in the summer since we are outdoors so much. We love PetSilk, Buddy Wash and SheaPet products! I use Johnsons baby shampoo for face and privates - in between.

| Don't mean to hijack the thread but there's something I've always wondered about with swimming. If you shouldn't get water in their ears when bathing, what about swimming? Doesn't water get in their eyes then and what do you do about it? |

| Should I use the conditioner each time I bathe her? Or sometimes only the shampoo? |
