| Too many baths? I like to keep Bentley clean and smelling nice but how much is too much when it comes to baths? |

| I bath Callie weekly and use sensitive baby wipes on her feet and privates every night.

| I bathe Yoshi about every 5-7 days. Sometimes, he doesn't need a FULL bath, but he's stinky or his head is greasy and I'll wash just his head or his feet or his bum. It really depends how dirty he gets & how much time we spend outside.

| Mine get bathed weekly. I would think too much more would be excessive and would dry their skin out.

| I use the Yorkie Splash and Shine products for Gracie's once a week bath. Sometimes if the grass is wet when we go for walks I may use a spray cleaner on her feet and legs. Some of the sprays actually make the fur kind of greasy but there are a few good ones out there. I love the Chris Christensen Show Off spray cleaner. Show Off No Rinse Shampoo by Chris Christensen - Cherrybrook I have heard that the Pet Head line has a good spray shampoo. I don't think it will hurt to give two baths in a week if you are using an all natural product fee of sulfates. It needs to have the proper Ph level for a dog, too. I know some pups tend to get into everything because they are so close to the ground. I would give the spray shampoo a try for between baths. |

| Weekly. Also use Yorkie Splash n Shine. My Vet and Groomer think that's too much for any dog, however. Her skin and fur is fine - smooth and not dry. Groomer suggested using baby wipes in between baths. |

| Yorkies have hair not fur and no under coat and stuff so they are unlike most other breeds and require more bathing then most other breeds.
