Pet owners who have dogs at home know that dogs have body odor. This is normal. What should I do if my dog has a bad body odor? The body odor of medium and large dogs is generally heavier than that of small dogs. If you want to reduce the smell, you need to do the following:
1. Bath your dog regularly
Dogs with heavy body odor are generally the smell emitted by their bodies, so owners can remove the odor by bathing their dogs regularly. Usually, you can wash your dog 1 to 2 times a week when it’s hot in summer, and 1 or 2 times a month when it’s cold in winter. And you need to pay attention to when bathing your dog, you need to choose a pet-specific shower gel, and the hair needs to be dried in time after bathing to avoid colds, or the breeding of pathogens that cause skin diseases.
2. Clean and disinfect your dog’s supplies regularly
In addition to the dog itself, its daily necessities will also be contaminated with odors, such as kennels, toys, clothes, etc. Therefore, owners need to clean and disinfect their dog's supplies regularly and keep the dog's kennel dry and clean, so that no bacteria and dirt will remain, thereby reducing the dog's body being contaminated with odor.
3. Pay attention to a light diet
Dog bad breath can sometimes be mistaken for body odor by owners, so owners should also pay attention to their dogs' oral problems. It is best to give their dogs a light diet, replace dog food with high oil and salt content with natural and healthy natural food, so that dogs can develop light eating habits, and buy pet-specific mouthwash or toothpaste for dogs, and clean their teeth every day.
