How to keep dogs from body odor

How to keep dogs from body odor:

2. It is necessary to clean up the dog's oral hygiene. If the dog’s mouth is unhygienic, the dog’s mouth is inflamed, and the dog suffers from dental calculus, the owner can regularly brush the dog’s teeth, clean the dental calculus, and give the dog mouthwash.

3. The anal glands should be squeezed regularly for dogs. The secretions in the anal glands are very pungent. If they are not cleaned up in time, they may overflow or become inflamed at any time, which will cause the dog's body to smell bad.

Therefore, the owner should plan the dog’s diet reasonably, so that the dog can properly supplement some water and vitamins, and can feed some probiotics to regulate the stomach.

5. The dog's ears need to be cleaned regularly. If your dog's ears are unhygienic or infested with ear mites, they can smell bad. The owner should keep the dog's ears clean, usually once a week.

6. It may be body odor caused by skin diseases. Dogs with skin diseases will often scratch it, so the skin is easily inflamed, and if it is not treated in time, it will become pus and smelly.

7. Wipe your dog's paws frequently. Especially when going out and coming home.

8. Clean the kennel. The environment where the dog lives must be dry, the kennel should be cleaned regularly, and the sleeping mat should be exposed to the sun every week.
