Frequently Asked Questions about Shampoos & Conditioners for Dogs

Should I wash my dog with both shampoo and conditioner?

You can wash your dog with both shampoo and conditioner or choose a combination product that has both. If your dog's coat is dry or easily tangled, you may want to use a separate specialized conditioner to address those specific issues. However, if your dog doesn't like baths or you're just in a hurry, a dog shampoo with conditioner in it may be all you need. Try experimenting with a few different products and see which ones work best for you and your pup!

How often should I wash my dog with shampoo and conditioner?

You should wash your dog with shampoo and conditioner as often as necessary to keep him clean and smelling fresh. Many experts recommend bathing dogs once a month, on average, but every dog's needs are different. Short-haired dogs and those that don't play outside often may be able to get away with bathing even less frequently than that. Active dogs and those prone to getting into messes may need a bath once a week or bimonthly, and dogs with skin issues or allergies may need more frequent baths, as well. Talk to your groomer or vet for tailored guidance on how often you should be bathing your pet.
