You know I was wondering the same thing! I give Mia a bath every saturday or sunday--once a week, but it looks like she needs it twice a week. We give her Merrick puppy plate and Zukes mini naturals as treats. I really don't know why her coat gets so oily. She doesn't stink too much but her coat gets very unpleasant. I have started to use conditioning sprays in between because I was afraid of bathing her more frequently since many people say once a week is enough. Mia looks so good after her bath I wish I could bathe her more.

Usually once a week... But I get lazy every now and then and it'll be somewhere between a week and half or two....

Buddy gets bathed every other Sat. He is very silky and feels like velvet but I keep his
coat on the short side. He gets walked so he is not running and playing in a yard to get dirty. Vet said not to bathe him more than 2x a month because
his skin will get dry. He has a sheen to his coat and does not get dry looking.
In the past I have used only Johnson's baby shampoo and my own conditioner. I have recently switched to Pet silk moisturizing shampoo and
conditioner. Love it.
