How often should I bathe my dog if he has sensitive skin, especially in humid weather?

[]

Answer

For dogs with sensitive skin, especially in humid conditions, over-bathing can strip natural oils and exacerbate issues. Generally, bathing every 2-4 weeks with a veterinarian-approved, hypoallergenic shampoo is a good starting point. However, if your dog is prone to skin infections or allergies, your vet might recommend a medicated shampoo more frequently. Observe your dog's skin for dryness or irritation and adjust as needed. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
