We have run into several kinds of advice when talking about giving Dali a bath. Most people have said that we should wash him no more than once a month; some people mentioned that washing him every other week was Ok. We still give him a bath every Sunday after the usual walk in the park, you know, where he meets other dogs, plays in the mud and comes back home to get in the couch or in our bed like nothing has happened. So far nothing negative has been notices in his skin and we really think he is use to his weekly bath by now, much more so since after every washing session he gets his favorite treat. We dry him with a blow dryer, which has to be done paying close attention to the temperature so we wouldn’t burn his delicate dermis. Another aspect that has to be taken very seriously are the ears of the dog, we had a really bad experience when we just got Dali, he got an ear infection apparently because water had gotten in his ear canal and caused the infection, which by the way smelled really bad… your dog’s ears should never smell bad; check them often and if you detect any odor take the dog to the vet to have them checked. Looking through several articles on bathing your dog we found this one that is very interesting an thought it might be of some help for those looking for advice.

There isn’t much winter time left here in the Southeast Coast of the U.S.A. and soon you’ll start seeing all kinds of people going back to the outdoors exercise routines; many of them accompanied by their dogs, loyal creatures that always do what we say, swing with our moods, and give us love no matter what… Well when we decide to get rid of those pounds that have been added to our waists during the cruel winter time, we don’t necessarily have to take our dog along with us; we could, of course, but if we are going to do so we must have our best friend thoroughly checked by their vets since not all of them might enjoy the benefits of working out with their masters, their lungs, heart and joints should be examined as well as their general physical condition.
