Hi, crew! As the autumn leaves rustle and the city streets glisten with rain, you have encountered the wet dog smell at home at least once already! One question that immediately pops up in my mind is "How often should I give my pup a bath?" Well, let's dive right in!

1. Fur Type Matters: Not All Coats Are Created Equal!

The type of fur your dog has can greatly influence their bathing routine:

Short-Haired Pups: These city slickers generally need less frequent baths, perhaps once every couple of months or so. Their fur dries quickly and doesn't trap dirt as much.

Long-Haired Beauties: With their glamorous locks, these dogs might require more regular grooming and baths every 4-6 weeks. Regular brushing can help reduce the need for frequent baths.

Curly or Wavy Fur: These curly cuties require more frequent baths, and it's essential to keep their curls tangle-free with routine brushing.

General rule of thumb is to do it as least as possible. Exceptions should be made, of course, for those days they come home from the dog park covered in mud.

2. Activity Level: City Strolls vs. Park Adventures

Your dog's daily activities play a significant role in their cleanliness:

City Walkers: If your dog's daily exercise involves short city strolls, then they might not get as dirty, requiring fewer baths.

Adventure Seekers: Dogs that love romping around parks, especially after a rain shower, might need a bit more tub time to keep them fresh.

If you’re planning to take your dog to the beach, camping, or simply to get their zoomies out at a dog park the day after it’s rained, you should plan on bath time afterward.

3. General Bathing Tips: Making Waves the Right Way!

Warm and Cozy: Always ensure the water is lukewarm for a comfortable and calming experience.

Choose the Right Shampoo: Our most important recommendation is to stick to products created for dogs.

Dry and Snuggle: Always towel-dry your pup immediately after their bath. If they're comfortable, a blow dryer on a cool setting can be used.
