Bathing your dog is something that every owner has to do, and how to get your dog clean and make sure that it doesn’t freeze is the point. Today, some relevant points about bathing your dog are discussed for pet owners.
Tip 1. Emphasize the sequence.
Separately wash the pet dog’s limbs, hips and mouth are relatively the dirtiest body, the most susceptible to bacterial infections, so before washing the whole body, it is best to take a small basin in addition to catch some water, separate put some shower gel, wash the dirtiest parts first, but in our experience, or should try to use more soap, because soap decontamination ability is strong, and rinsing is also convenient. Next, we can rub the shower gel around the dog’s circumference and rinse with a large bowl of water. The advantage of washing separately is that it will not bring the germs from the dirtier parts to the whole body, and if the dog is stained with paint, it will not mess up the whole basin of water, so as to avoid changing the color of the whole body.
Tip 2: Take care of the hair around the anus by the way
Bathing for small dogs, buttocks and anus is a key area, it is recommended that you need to apply a few more times of soap, rinse a few more times, can be very good to avoid breeding bacteria, but also to check this part of the stool sticking to it, or whether there is a long hair, which impede the dog to pull the poop, you need to trim and clean up in a timely manner, otherwise in the long run, the dog is easy to develop a bad habit of rubbing the buttocks, the hair should be careful to prevent injury to the hair cut. the tender flesh next to it.
Tip 3: Dealing with dogs that are afraid of water and don’t like to take baths
Some puppies just do not love to take a bath, and even some born to see the water is afraid, in this case, you can coax it, tease it to wash, or take a delicious dog food, desserts, jerky as a reward for bathing, the first few times you can also play a small game with it in the water, form a habit of the majority of the dog will love to take a bath, no longer afraid of the water.
Not only a few dogs, as long as it is a domesticated pet, more or less afraid of water, some of them stubborn molecules, always hide away from the bath tub far away from the hard pull, hard tugging is useless, encountered this situation, we also have a trick, is to help it dry cleaning, you first take a small basin, which puts into the bath liquid, and then dilute a little bit of water, and then use the sprayer (pet supplies stores have to sell) uniformly sprayed all around its body, then Massage until the foam appears, and then use a dry cloth to help it dry wipe clean, the whole process is somewhat similar to us in the barber store dry shampooing hair as simple, it is recommended that the action of the kneading to be light and heavy properly, the dog can like this enjoyment it.”
Tip 4: Don’t use water to flush your face directly
Some friends like to pick up the water to the dog’s head, and think that only this way, only clean enough to be thorough, in fact, not. Because like pugs, Pekingese and other dogs, the original nose “skyward”, the nasal cavity is also shorter, if you are reckless and easy to form the water back up, they are not afraid not to escape only strange. Therefore, it is recommended that you for short-nosed dogs should be wiped mainly, of course, you can also grab the mouth with one hand, the other hand holding the cage from the side of the rinse, and then rotate, the effect is also good.
