Finding the Right Bathing Schedule for Your Pet
One of the most common questions pet owners ask is how often they should bathe their pets. The answer depends on several factors, including your pet’s breed, coat type, and activity level. In general, dogs and cats should be bathed every 4-6 weeks. However, some pets with oily coats may need more frequent baths, while others with water-resistant fur can go longer between baths.
Over-bathing can strip the natural oils from your pet’s skin, leading to dryness and irritation. Always use a shampoo formulated specifically for pets to avoid disrupting the pH balance of their skin. If your pet has skin issues, your vet might recommend a special bathing regimen.
