| ![]() Stella gets a bath anywhere between 6-10 days, depends how much yucky wet grass she's played in, how many times she's stepped on other dogs poops, and how many long walks we take when its 95 out, so in other words, as soon as she starts to smell like dog. |

| ![]() I have been bathing Ranger every night or every other. He seems to like going to bed clean and it doesn't make him itchy, so we both are happy in the end ![]()

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | ![]() i bath morgan every weekend because her hair gets greasy and dirty looking. when she's cut really short we sometimes go every 10 days but i'm just so used to taking her in teh shower with me every weekend. bathing does not dry out their coat. Depending on what breed the dog and their hair type you may need to use conditioner every time or deep condition every few weeks to add moisture back to the coat. with Morgan's coat i don't use conditioner at all and she's soft as can be.

| ![]() Pistol gets a bath every Saturday. He has gone 2 weeks once or twice but he gets greasy looking in a week so I like to bathe him then. |

| ![]() Couver gets a bath once a week. If I go any longer than that, he starts to look grungy. He sleeps with us and is always on the couch, so I want a clean pup ![]()

| ![]() I usually bathe them once a week, sometimes we go 10 days in winter, but then my sister starts 'suggesting' that they need a bath. I must say, it is great living with my sister. She loves brushing them and fixing their hair, so it makes it easier for me, having to brush two really active dogs daily. I try to go longer in between baths in winter and I try to plan their baths for days that are a little warmer, but if that doesn't happen - which it often does when we have one of our legendary two week rainfalls - I just turn on the heater and make them some warm water bottles (covered in fur) to cuddle with. I use a detangling shampoo and a silky, smooth conditioner. I also spray them with leave-in conditioner before drying. They smell so good after a bath! Ps. I also groom them myself, so with every second bath we do a slight sanitary trim and I cut their nails.

| ![]() I bathe my dogs once a week or every two weeks. It depends on how dirty my dogs get and how busy my schedule is. Last edited by JoshieBoy; 07-17-2009 at 06:03 AM. |

| ![]() Pepper usually gets a bath once a week. In the winter, we usually go a lot longer.
