It’s That Dreaded Time of the Week – Doggie Bath Time!
Owning a dog is one of the most rewarding experiences any animal lover can have. Many of us will
start out with a puppy and, if we’re lucky enough we see them through their whole lives right into
the twilight years. Dogs bring a great deal of joy to a lot of people simply because they’re such loyal
friends and, anyone who has owned one will know just how individual their personalities are (even if
you do have a favourite breed). The trouble is one personality trait that seems to be in most pets like
this is their attitude towards a bath and dog shampoo!
For some unknown reason these loving four legged friends seem to have a sixth sense when it comes
to running water and many of us have to resort to all sorts of tricks to get them to finally surrender
so they can be washed.
Why it’s Important You Stick with It
There are times when you simply cannot allow those pleading eyes make you give in when it comes
to bath time because you’ve been out for a walk and your dog is, well, just too smelly and covered in
dirt to allow him back into the house.
However, there are also times when you should keep up your weekly bath regime even if your dog
doesn’t seem particularly dirty. It’s at times like this you feel bad about reaching for a bottle of dog
shampoo and it’s all too easy to give in.
This is something you should most definitely not do! You see, there are shampoos on the market
formulated specifically for dogs for a reason. There is a lot going on under that coat you don’t see.
When you take your dog for walks, he’s open to all sorts of little bugs that will get trapped in his fur.
If he is unlucky enough, they can get under the skin and start causing all manner of problems.
How Bathing Your Dog Keeps Him
Healthy
A dog shampoo will make sure that not only is
your furry friend’s coat sleek and shiny, it will
also make sure his skin is kept in good
condition. Of course you will, as a responsible
dog owner, ensure your pet has a flea
treatment as often as recommended but, this
doesn’t deal with all of the issues.
Dry skin can lead to terrible itchy conditions
like eczema or malasezzia dermatitis and this
is where a good bath each week will help. It
will also help keep the little bugs that can get
missed in-between flea treatments at bay.
If Your Dog Really Hates Water
If you’re having real problems with getting
your dog to take a bath, you can get dry
shampoo for dogs which could be the answer. No water, no splashing or howling and definitely no
soggy clothes for you! Just a clean and fresh four legged friend with a healthy coat and skin.
Many dogs do hate a bath (as you will know) but, it’s wise to understand this is an essential part of
their skin care regime. If you’re not sure what type of products to use, just ask your vet.
