Pet's info: Dog | Cocker Spaniel | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 23 days old | 7.5 lbs

How often should I bathe my Cocker spaniel puppy? Is it okay to bathe him once a week or is it a bit too frequent? We clean him with a wet towel everyday though.

Once a week is probably okay although bathing this often may lead to dry skin. If Coconis not getting dirty you may want to just use the towel and bathe every 3-4 weeks. I would not recommend bathing more often than weekly.
