This is often dependent upon your dog's lifestyle & yours. It’s recommended that dogs be groomed (bath, nails shortened, ears cleaned, brushing and for those it applies to a haircut) at least every 4-6 weeks. Some dogs require grooming more often.

Yes! Bathing and brushing helps remove dead skin and coat to reduce shedding, matting and skin irritations. Clean ears prevent costly and painful ear infections. Long nails can cause your dog severe pain, actually breaking down the bones and muscles in the paws over time.
