The answer to this is a simple one. Unless your dog has skin problems or had a long roll in the mud, you really don’t have to bathe him at all. You may want to make him more pleasant to the smell, so in this case a few baths every now and then would be fine. Just like people, some dogs may smell worse than others. There are some dogs who never had a bath in their lives and yet don’t have any unpleasant odor. Then there are those dogs who do require a weekly bath so you don’t have to hold your nose every time he comes by you for some love and affection!

As a general guideline, bathe your dog, once a month and use dog shampoo or human baby shampoo. If you want to bathe more him more frequently, use a soap free or moisturizing  shampoo so his skin doesn’t get dried out.

Remember, your pets count!
