We all love the fur baby who keeps us happy and active by rolling around on the carpet and the couch. But one question that frequently comes to a pet parent’s mind is, “is my fur ball clean? can he hop around on the sofa? If not, then how often should we bathe the canine companion?”. Different people have different answers for this but one thing is for sure. Washing a dog at least once a month is a good rule of thumb in hot countries like India. colder countries can opt for even once every three months. several vets and groomers say once a week is also fine if they actually grow dirty. It all depends on the breed of dog, their activity levels and the environment as well.
