    How Often Should You Bathe Your Dog?


Unless your pooch just spent the afternoon splashing in mud puddles, you probably don't need to bathe your dog more than once a month. This is breed-dependent; some dogs with longer coats will require more frequent baths or even trips to a professional groomer. If you're not sure how often to suds up your pup, check with a groomer or your vet. Giving a monthly bath is key, though.

"The way dog's skin works is, about every 30 days they have a whole new layer of cells," Easton says. "So, the old cells slough off. That's what makes dander and things like that. So regular grooming or bathing keeps that dander down."
