[nagdu] how often to bathe dog?

[Daryl Marie]

Debby and all,
Thanks a ton! I can go weeks without Furminating, but I do furminate when I notice that she is shedding, particularly on her back end.  I guess I overstated how much I furminate!

I also find I am doing a bit more brushing when she is wearing her jacket... not sure why! LOL

I brush regularly, but not daily... in fact, Jenny prefers the Furminator to the brush... princess dog!

Hi Daryl, first of all, (and others may not agree) but I don't think you should furminate so often. If you are brushing daily, you probably only should be furminating about every three months.  As for bathing, well, again opinions vary. If Jenny gets muddy and stuff, then bathing might be more often but really three to four times a year is probably as much as you should bathe, unless there are other extenuating circumstances, (like infections or something that require more bathing). But again, you're probably going to get tons of opinions on this one. (Smile).  Peace,   Debby and Neena who needs to have her nails clipped again).
