fresh-dog-dry-shampoo-powder

I admit, I'm much lazier about giving my dog a bath these days than I used to be. When he was a puppy, I always made a point to bath him regularly. But as he's gotten older, I may only give him a really good bath (with water) 2 or 3 times each year! Note To New Dog Owners: Giving a young puppy (or any dog that's new to you) a bath regularly is still a good idea -- because it gets them used to (A) having baths and (B) a routine.
