Pat,
I didn't say how often, I just said they need to be bathed. Every dog is different in a different environment. Yours may be OK bathing once a year. Mine go outside and lay in the dirt in the backyard. If a dog is having some coat problems it may need bathing more often. At one time one of mine was having some health issues so I had to bath every 2 months. So everyone's situation is different. -

Basenji Mom,
Curry comb is made of rubber. They use them on horses. I use one that fits in the palm of my hand. It's like 4"L x 1-3/4"W. It has rows of little nibs. It picks up those little tiny Basenji hairs. It really makes a difference. I comb mine daily. It stimulates the coat. Any pet store will have them. -
Another good tool is called a Zoom Groom…. again available at pet stores
-
Great info..thanks. We were using a regular pet brush looks kinda like what I use on my hair
-
The curry combs or things like the Zoom Groom will stimulate the skin, loosen dead hair, etc.. and the you can brush with a regular brush..
-
I see there are various sizes available..any suggestions on size? Multi Stripping Curry Comb & Rubber Curry..Coarse, Medium, Fine, Super Fine…oh geez

My curry comb has short little nibs very close together. It collects a lot of those little hairs and then I just rinse it under running water using a finger nail scrub brush to clean it out. Takes a less then a minute.
