You should only give a dog a bath probably 1-2 times, if you shower them too much you are washing away the natural oil of their fur and their skin will become dry. If they are really dirty or smelly then that would be ok to shower them but if they are not dirty you don't have to shower them every week.

Baths should be once every two weeks or longer. The dog skin will dry out of bathed too many times

you should probably only give her a bath 1 time or 2 times a month. its like giving a baby a bath. if you give a baby or a dog a bath to often then their skin could become a little dry.

Not at all. I used to bathe our dogs once a week-2 weeks but lately I haven't had as much time... It never hurt them and their coat stayed soft and smooth. However if your dog has dry skin you may not want to bathe it that much.

If you are using a dog shampoo 3 month is more than enough, you will strip out all the oils in their skin. Never use human shampoo on them as it will strip it out right away and it has the wrong PH to it.

yes it will dry out your dogs skin and make it itch if you use shampoo. however if your dog gets really dirty and you would like to get the dirt off just water will work fine.
