I've got two show types, both with quite a lot of coat, but they're rarely bathed (and they don't smell
). We walk in the New Forest every day so they collect quite a lot of vegetation and mud, mostly in their leg and tummy feathering, but luckily for me one never rolls in anything gross and the other one only rarely.
I find everyday vegetation and a bit of mud is best left until the dog has dried out, then brushed out, followed by a whizz round with the Dyson to pick up the stuff that's ended up on the floor.
My younger dog is entire and when he's busy cocking his leg on trees etc. he tends to hop along (his idea of multitasking) so I give his undercarriage a quick hose off every few days or it starts to smell of pee
I think most dogs don't need a lot of bathing unless they roll in fox poo and dead things. Fingers crossed your puppy won't be a roller
