We got lucky. Harlea loves the water so when it is warm she gets a bath outside in her pool and in the colder months we do it in the tub or take her to the puppy day spa.

We bath our guys once every two weeks. I use Petsmart's gentle puppy tearless shampoo with oatmeal and chamomile. I shampoo them and then rinse off the shampoo, and then I do a second rinse with equal parts of warm water and vinegar. This keeps them smelling nicer longer in between baths, it conditions the skin and coat and leaves them soft, and it removes the soap residue.

I used to take them every 3months to get baths but nowadays, mainly b/c they've been playing outside more and getting really dirty, I bathe them once every 6wks or so.

When she was younger Raven used to get a bath every week. Now she gets one maybe once a month. I do wipe her bits once she uses the bathroom and also wipe down her face at least once or twice a week. She gets a bit stinkier faster if it has been raining or snowing.

I give my dogs a bath if they get dirty, or if they smell(rarely have doggie odor) or if they happen to get fleas,which is rare.

Elmo
I bathe Elmo every 3 to 4 months in the bath tub, in the summer I bathe him in his swimming pool, he hates it. Elmo hates to bathe. I am taking Elmo the middle of this month to his Bulldog Vet to get his bath before he has his shots.

Goob gets a bath every week or every 2 weeks. He sleeps in bed with us and I'm very sensitive to smells. We usually take him to the park on Saturday and Sunday afternoons so Sunday's make great bath days for us.20140904_211407.jpg

I use pet head. I love the sprays. Cookie dough mmmmmm what a smell

We was them 3 times but it depends on how dirty they get on some of my winter walks. I wash there face out of the bath and dry first making sure every fold and wrinkle are bone dry

I try to bathe Ruckus one per week and don't like to let him go longer than two weeks without a bath. He loves to run and play and he gets dirty doing it outside on walks or at the park. He also sleeps in the bed with us and if I don't keep up with his bath I notice the quilt looks dirty faster.... Ruckus tolerates a bath. We bought a shower head with a detachable handle portion that is long enough to reach the ground, so it's an efficient process.

Using vinegar doesn't make them smell like vinegar? Do you rinse again after the vinegar rinse?
