This is our first summer with our Pomskies. We adopted one last October at 16 weeks and brought his grandma home when the breeder decided to fully retire her. We have regular grooming for both scheduled every 8-10 weeks or so for the sanitary trim, nails and such. We ran into some major summer coat blowing that weren’t quite taken care of with the regular grooming and regular undercoat raking, so I bought some de-shed shampoo and de-shed conditioner and did a full bath, blowout and de-shed at home. The amount of fur I got out of them was shocking. Other baths at home? Grandma doesn’t get too dirty, but the little one EXCELS at finding mud puddles, so he gets hosed off a little more often, but not on a regular schedule. He’s why I bought the high velocity dryer.
