Giving Your Dog a Bath



You might get away with spot cleaning your dog on occasion but at some point he may get smelly or dirty enough that he needs a full bath. And regular baths are essential to keeping his skin healthy. Whether your dog loves or hates baths, you need to be efficient. Gather all bath supplies together in one place. Brush your dog well to remove excess hair that could mat when wet. Wet your dog down with lukewarm water. Lather him up with dog-safe shampoo while avoiding the eyes, nose and mouth. Don’t forget to soap up the groin, the armpits, and in between the toes. Rinse your dog quickly but thoroughly, again with lukewarm water. Towel off your dog and brush him to remove tangles while taking care not to hurt him by pulling too hard. Keep him inside and warm until he is completely dry. For more information, contact your vet Fort Bragg NC.
