Bathing Dog.?

2

Healthy dogs on a good diet don't need many baths. I might bathe my dogs a couple times a year, and rinse them off after they've been swimming at the beach, to get the salt off.

I have one dog that has skin issues and he gets bathed 2-3 times a week with medicated shampoo.

A good brushing is better than bathing. Unless your dog rolls in something nasty, or being shown, there is no need to bathe more than a once a month or so, if that.

Dogs should generally not be bathed more than every 6-8 weeks at the most.

Bath him every time he gets dirty, otherwise don't bath him more than once a month and if you notice a lot of dry skin, bath him even less.

It depends on how dirty your dog gets, if his coat starts feeling like it's not silky soft then you might want to bathe him. However, that's my personal preference, it not necessary, it's just oils in the coat. However, I would recommend a weekly bath, just so he doesn't ever get super dirty. Also I would probably use baby shampoo so it won't hurt his eyes if it gets in them, plus if make their coats feel really nice.

once every couple of weeks. Dog hair is like human hair, it creates natural oils to protect the skin underneath. if you shampoo him ince a week, your washing away all the essential oils that protect his skin and coat which can cause skin infections. If he has long hair, help to keep it clean by regular brushing with a good quality brush that removes dead hair.

Maximum twice a year, unless vet recommended and/or prescribed.
