Dogs should not take a cold bath in summer. Taking a cold bath in very hot weather will cause great harm to the dog's body. It will cause the dog's skin blood vessels to constrict, body temperature will drop, and the body will catch cold, which will easily lead to a cold. Moreover, bathing dogs with cold water can easily cause stress reactions, and even cause abnormal symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea.

Tips for dog bathing:

1. Good health. Only when the dog is completely healthy and has been vaccinated, and the antibody level is qualified, can it be bathed.

2. Use pet-specific bath liquid. The PH value of dog skin is different from that of human skin, and the body wash used by humans is not suitable for dogs.

3. Do not take a bath frequently. Do not bathe your dog too frequently. If you wash too frequently, the skin will be dry, dander and even infected with skin diseases.

4. The water temperature is suitable. The temperature of bath water should not be too high or too low, generally 36 degrees in spring and summer, and 37 degrees in autumn and winter are the most suitable.

5. The order of pouring water. When bathing a puppy, it’s best to start from the feet and wash upwards slowly. When washing the head, don’t wash the eyes, and put plugs on the nose and ears.

6. Rinse completely. When flushing, it must be complete, and don't let the foam of the bath liquid stay on the dog's body, so as not to irritate the skin and cause dermatitis.

7. Dry your hair. After taking a bath, immediately dry the water droplets on the dog with a towel, and then dry it with a hair dryer. Do not put the dog directly in the sun to dry.
