There are a lot of pros and cons about weekly bathing. I think it is a fine thing as long as you are sure to use a good gentle shampoo/conditioner and RINSE WELL!

Mine get a bath once a week also but tend to get flakey. I just got a sample bottle of Dri Dog by HappyTails and was thinking of using it every other week instead but will see how well it works first.

Mine also get a bath once a week. I use this shamppo and I love the results. Like Cindy said make sure you rinse well.http://www.touchofmink.com/prod_details.asp?id=15

When it was warmer and my dog was outside more often, he was getting baths every week. Now, in winter I try to do it every 2 weeks, as I know the air is very dry and he doesn't get that dirty right now... I comb daily him with a 'splash/bath' puppy conditioner just to remove dirt and make his hair shiny. He gets his face washed every day too.. I plan on giving him baths every week soon - he's going to start going to daycare and spending more time outside now, that's warmer

Buddy gets bathed every other week. However, he's not running in
a yard and rolling around in the grass. He gets walked.
Vet said not every week or I will dry out his coat and sking.

Once a week for Maddie...Keeps her looking nice.

I bathe Bengi once a week too. I think more ofter than that would not ben good for him and, in my case, less often than that causes puppy smell around the house!
