[nagdu] Dog washing

[JULIE PHILLIPSON]

Eve I wash my dog every couple of months and in the winter a little more 
often.  I groom     him just a few times a week because he has such a thin 
fine coat not much comes out in the brush.  He loves his bath time too.  Of 
course he would he is a yellow lab!  Of course that is not a given because 
my last dog didn't like water at all and just tolerated a bath.  I use 
oatmeal dog shampoo on him.
