When can a Border Collie be bathed? A Border Collie can only be bathed after it is 2 months old and about two weeks after it has been vaccinated. If it is a puppy purchased or adopted, it is best to let it fully adapt to the home. Give it a bath after it is in a new environment; when bathing a Border Collie, the water temperature is best at 37°C, and it is best to use a pet-specific shower gel.

It is best to bathe a Border Collie when it is 2 months old, because the body of a Border Collie puppy before 2 months old is not strong enough, and it is easy to catch cold and get sick if you give it a random bath at this time.

In addition to being two months old, you should also note that you can only bathe your little border collie about two weeks after it is vaccinated. During the vaccination period, the immunity of Border Collies is not stable enough, so it is best not to take a bath. After vaccination, the body of a Border Collie puppy will produce antibodies, making its body stronger and less susceptible to colds. If you give the little Border Collie a bath at this time, it will be less likely to get sick.

Also, if you buy or adopt a little border collie, it is best to let it go to the new environment for more than a week and have basically adapted to it before bathing it. When a little border collie arrives in a new environment and has not yet adapted to the environment, it is easy to be nervous and nervous when bathing. It may struggle and bark during the bathing process, which makes bathing difficult. And it may cause it to have a shadow on bathing, and it will no longer like bathing, so you have to wait until it adapts to the environment before bathing.

Pay attention to the frequency of bathing. In the hot summer, it is best to bathe the little border collie once every 7-10 days. In autumn and spring, you can bathe it once every 15-20 days. In the cold winter, the bathing time can be Extended to about once a month. If you usually take your Border Collie out to play, it is best to promptly remove the dust and dirt from the hair after returning home to keep the dog's body clean and tidy.

We need to remind everyone that when bathing a Border Collie, the water temperature should be 37°C. Too cold or too hot will cause harm to the Border Collie. And it’s best to use pet-specific shower gel instead of human dish soap or shampoo, because the pH of dog’s skin is different from that of humans, and rash use of human cleaning products will cause damage to the dog’s skin. And be sure to dry it immediately after bathing and blow dry with a hairdryer, otherwise you will easily get skin diseases.
