How often should an inside dog be bathed?

Question

I have a long haired chi-weenie. He stays inside, but does get to go outside to play alot everyday. I have been bathing him every other day.

Answer 1

I have a weenie dog and we bathe her once a week. Any longer than that she starts stinking because she does play outside some. We've never had any problems with her skin or anything and she's 5. :)

Answer 2

That is way, way too often. Your dog will end uo with skin problems. As a general rule a dog only needs a bath when its coat gets soiled, with mud or urine for example.
The frequency of bathing will also depend upon the breed and its housing.
If your dog normally sleeps with you and is allowed on your furniture you may want to bathe the animal once a month.
An outside dog will benefit from an occasional bath.
Between baths just give your dog a good daily brushing. That helps the coat stay clean.

Answer 3

I'm a groomer in a vet clinic and we recommend that you bathe your dog no more than once a week. Doing so can cause major skin irritation, dryness, and flaking. That will cause them to start scratching alot, which can lead to a skin infection that increases the odor. If the odor is a serious issue with you try buying some hypo-allergenic pet wipes and some hypo-allergenic doggy cologne to use in between baths. Make sure that they are both non-drying formulas.

Answer 4

Way too much bathing. He should be brushed every couple of days and this will keep him clean. A dog should only be bathed once a month at most. Bathing them alot is very bad for their skin. If you insist on bathing more often the use gentle shampoos for dry skin. Also purchase Omega 3 fish oil, liquid or capsule, and give him one capsule or equiv. liquid a day.

Answer 5

Measuring the penis when it isn't erect is pointless, since the length and bulk are affected by various temporary factors, such as the ambient temperature. Even the largest male organ can shrink to virtually nothing if the man goes for a swim in cold water. However, at normal temperatures a non-erect p enis usually measures between 8.5 cm and 10.5 cm (3-4 inches) from tip to base.

The average figure is about 9.5 cm (3.75 inches). Of course, it's true that some men have big penises and some have smaller ones, just as some men have small feet and some have big feet, but the measurement is not – repeat not – an index of virility.

Answer 6

A week to 10 days is recommended. Their skin is more vulnerable than you would think. Wipe its feet after a walk. If you can't stand the odor, there are sprays to help you endure the smells. If you keep up washing the little thing that often, it will shed hair like crazy and start getting skin trouble. Consult a vet in choosing a shampoo.

Answer 8

It's best not to bathe your dog more than once every ten days. Excessive washing can cause skin problems and would be uncomfortable for your pup.

Answer 9

My vet says to bathe them once a month and use pet wipes as needed to freshen them up. Bathing them too much causes dry skin and dander.

Answer 10

we bathe our chocolate lab about once a week. anymore than that and it dries out their coat and skin. If your dog is clean by nature(ie they don't go outside and roll in pooh or dead stuff) then you could do it every other week or once a month.

My mom has to bathe her poodle about every other day. I really believe this dog is mentally challenged. If it stinks he rolls in it.
