Re: while on the bathing topic....
Boo had a vet checkup today so I asked our vet about eye ointment. She said not to use anything, so I guess I'll keep doing the hands-over-eyes method too. Maybe I'll buy a bottle of saline solution too. Store it in the medicine cabinet, just in case...

We bathe Boo once a month but do lots of spot rinses in-between with just water, or sometimes water and conditioner if the hair is long. (The shampoo we have can be used once a week, if diluted with a lot of water, but we only use it if he's really dirty or muddy.) Normally we stick him in the shower, hose off the dirty parts, then towel dry. I worry about dry skin too, but this works just fine. Maybe this would work for your puppy.babydoll said:
