TEXT how often can we bathe our babies? how often should we brush their hair? could we get by just with a daily combing and a weekly brushing?

if you have a long coat shih tzu i'd suggest daily brushing... it's part of the daily routine with these dogs.. brush brush brush daily! what do you mean daily combing and weekly brushing???
my full coats (those whom i show) are bathed every 4 or 5 days, those who are cut down are bathed once a week or once every two weeks. they barely get dirty coz they spend most of their time inside our bedrooms anyway.

hi there jester!
the max bathing a week is twice only. Do not go overboard. Baka magkasakit na yung shih tzu mo.
as for brushing, depende sa coat. Do you plan to grow it or nagupitan na ba ng maigsi?
Kung full coat, you must brush on a daily basis.
Kung cut down na, you may brush kahit every other day.
Make sure you spray water-conditioner. Gamitin mo ang spray pump na puno ng water at may pinch of conditioner.

thanks rainh2o and honeybabe. i have a cut down, a long coat and a puppy. ;D over na ba ang twice daily brushing? can too much brushing damage their coats? kasi, sometimes, i brush at night then i comb in the morning, other days, when feeling masipag, brush in the morning, brush again at night. ;D

kadalasan ganon ang nangyayari. hindi babalik sa dati ang coat.
so kung cut down, DECIDE super muna
