[pyrnet] Too Many Baths



Hello All!  Bear and Sugar go to the vet and get bathed once a week.  Bear
has always had dry skin and allergic reactions to the bite of fleas and
grass.  Sugar on the other hand doesn't have the dry skin/allergy issues.
However, they both do well with frequent bathing.

I give them both Omega III geltabs (usually two each a day) and Bear gets
Benedryl in his water when his allergies act up.  He also gets shots in the
summer which is when his allergies seem to be much more active.

As for the bathing messing up their ability to "shed" the dirt...NOPE!!  (At
least not for mine.)  They are both inside only babies, go out only to play,
run and jump and to take care of business.  Sometimes when they come in they
have to be left in their room (a 10x12 in the back of the house that opens
to the kitchen and the hall that we just close off with baby gates) until
the "ick" falls off.  As soon as it does they gain control of the house!
