Hi all!
Baby Lily comes home this Saturday at 10 weeks old and we are so thrilled! This is our first dog. We have always had cats.
Everything is ready at home for her for the most part, but I do have a few questions about the frequency of grooming.
Thanks!!

Everything is ready at home for her for the most part, but I do have a few questions about the frequency of grooming.
- I purchased a Kong rubber grooming brush. Is a 1 week brush of the coat sufficient? Is it ok to use a furminator?
- We just had a fence put in so the backyard is a bit muddy. I suspect she's going to have a blast in the mud and dirt (much to my chagrin lol)... Is it okay to spray her down with the hose or in the tub without soap and towel her off? How often is too often? I'll be sure to dry her thoroughly in all the right places.
- I purchased malacetic wipes for cleaning face folds and tail (if needed - I don't think she'll have a pocket). How often should I do this? Do I need to dry the folds after using these kind of wipes?
- I've purchased witch hazel... Can I use this to wipe inside her ears with cotton balls? How often?
Thanks!!
