If your pet dog falls into these "5 situations", never give it a bath no matter how dirty it is!
In the process of raising dogs, our pets' washing and care is not just a simple splash of water and drying. Regularly bathing dogs seems to be something that every enthusiastic dog owner can easily do, but bathing actually contains many details and considerations. If your four-legged friend happens to be in the following five special situations, I urge you to temporarily avoid bathing your pet no matter how unclean it is, in order to prevent adverse effects.
1. Arriving in a strange territory
If your puppy has just entered the new home, even if the smell on its body is unbearable, please allow it to adapt to the new home environment first. After about two weeks, you can give it the first bathing ritual. During this period, if you really can't stand it, stroking its hair with a wet towel is also a good expedient.
2. When fighting against diseases
When a dog is weak and sick, its immunity is at its lowest. Forcing a dog to take a bath at this time will only make it more uncomfortable. Even after recovery, you should wait until the dog's physical condition recovers before considering a bath. After bathing, you must blow dry quickly to prevent it from catching a cold. The temperature of the bath water should be kept between 35 and 38 degrees Celsius.
3. Special care during menstrual period
As we all know, female dogs also have menstrual periods, which are accompanied by bleeding. During this sensitive period, their bodies are also more fragile, so I recommend that you do not bathe female dogs at this time, especially on days when bleeding is heavy. In order to compensate for the large amount of nutrients lost during the menstrual period, you can choose high-protein, low-fat dog food for your dog to ensure their nutritional intake.
4. When the wound has not healed
Dogs are bound to get injured sometimes, whether during play or in accidents. If you find your dog with an injury, be careful when bathing it to avoid contact with water. If you are not confident enough to treat the wound, wait until the wound is partially healed before bathing it.
5. Special care for new mothers
For a female dog that has just given birth, bathing will not only interfere with its recovery, but the smell of the shower gel may also affect the puppy's ability to find a place to breastfeed.
Generally, the frequency of bathing a dog should not be too high, once a week is enough. If your dog has a light body odor and stays clean, it is completely feasible to bathe it every three to four weeks in winter.
Regarding the dog's diet and health, in addition to paying attention to the details of bathing, you must not ignore their daily diet. When feeding, avoid overly salty food to prevent skin diseases and tear stains.
The key is to choose a low-salt, nutritionally balanced staple dog food. Such a product can not only help reduce hair loss and tear stains, but also ensure the dog's comprehensive nutrition.
In addition, fruits and vegetables are indispensable to a balanced diet, as they are an important part of a healthy diet.
When it comes to dog training treats, it’s important to choose products that help with teeth grinding, which not only aids in training but also prevents oral problems such as bad breath and tartar.
