When should my dog get bathed?
This is one of the most common questions I receive as a groomer!
The answer is every 21 days!
This of course is just a general guideline and you should use your own discretion for your dogs personal needs!
You should always factor in your dogs coat type, lifestyle, and skin condition when deciding how often to bathe your dog!
The dogs skin cycle is the main reason to bathe them every 21 days, their skin cells replenish and its important to remove the old skin cells by bathing your pup!
Bathing your dog on time and in a regular routine not only greatly helps with their anxiety levels at the groomers and their all around behavior at the groomers but it also ensures that their coat remains healthy and clean while preventing skin conditions that lead to excess itching, irritation, and oily skin!
Just as it is important to wash your dogs skin on time it is also important not to over wash your dog!
Over washing strips away protective essential oils that keep your dogs skin naturally healthy and moisturized and disrupts their skins balance.
You should never wash your dog more than once a week to prevent over washing!
