Hi, Here is my input on the subject! Shih Tzu in coat should be bathed every 3-5 days if you want to keep them in show coat. Cut downs can be a bathed every 1 to 2 weeks. Use a GOOD quality dog shampoo like Vellus, #1 All Systems, etc. OR if ona budget Pantene works but REMEMBER to put consitioner on your shih tzu after shampoo! As for oiling there are OILS for Dogs to keep them in oil like Pet Silk, Pure Pet, Summer Wind, Bio Groom, etc. WHY use Olive Oil???? YUCK! It is meant for eating not for oiling dogs coat! Also A coat once in oil can never be taken out of oil as the hair will MATT! So its usually better to not oilm and what are you saying about the oil making it cool or whatever? A dog in oil FEELS HOT, that's why they need to be on A/C a lot! In fact shih tzu should be in A/C because Malaysia is a hot country.
