Question keeping a white dog white?

Is she going to be a show dog or a pet dog? How often do you bath her? I find if I brush Rusty a little bit and then use a damp cloth he comes up squeeky clean. Maybe try a different whitening shampoo. But then again she is only a pup and pups will get in all sort of stuff!

One of my dogs is white very hard to keep her clean they love to roll around onthe ground wrestling with each other. If they are wet i let them dry then i give them a good brushing. There isnt really anything you can do. My white dog gets a bath prob every 1 - 2 weeks and if they dont smell its usually once a month. If anyone knows of a product that helps white dogs stay clean please let us know.

I use Bio Groom's Show White on Cali.

Coconut oil base shampoo, enriched with protein, is formulated for white and light colored coats, manes and tails. Non-bleeching. Will not strip natural oils from hair and skin. Dilute 4:1.

In between baths I brush in some baby powder that has cornstarch in it. This absorbs the oils and grease that causes a white dog to look yellowish. This is what they do to show dogs.
