Bathing

Hi, I was wondering how often BDW give their bullies a bath? I have read and heard recommendations ranging from every month to every 6 months. What is your take? how about for puppies 6 months and under?! Thanks.

that is really cute..great pic

Audrey gets a bath a couple times a year

usually works out to be every 3 months or so. I think the frequency really depends on the individual dog. Audrey doesn't have oily skin, and she doesn't get stinky unless she plays a lot in her pool. So there really is no need for me to bathe her more frequently. That's just her though, all dogs are different.

Re: Ok, now THAT"S cute!

I agree! That is one of the cutest things I've seen... love kids and bullies...
Chloe just started jumping into the tub. I used to have to chase her down and coerce her into the tub.... I think in her old age (LOL two!) she has decided bathing is good!

Re: Bathing

remi bathes more often then he needs to. anytime he hears my son taking a bath he runs up and jumps in with him! we typically only actually bath him (really soap up and scrub down) every couple weeks.

His tail tends to get grubby...when he poops...so we wipe him in between baths, but sometimes he needs a bit extra haha.

Boris is bathed monthly unless otherwise needed...

When he was a puppy we bathed him weekly because of the potty training. Otherwise we used wipes and still do to freshen him up in between. I have also heard that bathing too much dries skin.

Suprised....

that you give your bullies baths so often as I have read that it dries out their skin if bathed too frequently?! Was I misinformed? Also, does this frequency change if its a puppy, or it does not make a difference regarding age?
