About

• Have you ever been in an embarrassing situation
  when a guest arrived, and they smell a weird
  odour emanating out of your dog? Well, that's
  because you didn't bathe it for the past 10 days!
  Some might even go for a month! No wonder your
  home might have a 'dog smell' even after a
  thorough cleaning session. So, it is not possible
  to bathe your dog. Extreme use of dog shampoos
  could result in fur shedding. At the same time,
  if you keep it days without bathing, it starts
  stinking. So the big question remains, how often
  should I bathe my dog? In this article, we will
  reveal some important facts on dog bathing and
  some incredible tips to follow.
• So to begin with, bathing is a good activity for
  your dog's hygiene. It also gives you a chance to
  check for bumps, scratches, fleas and other
  irregular things on your dog. These things are
  visually accessible when your dog is wet, and his
  hair is close to his body. Here is a common bath
  routine for your dog -
• Hair Length - Dogs with long hair has more dirt
  and debris than a dog with shorter hair.
• Skin Allergies and other conditions - Some dogs
  can have skin allergies and other conditions.
  Thus, it is important to bathe them frequently.
• Level of activity - If your dog stays indoors, he
  will be probably cleaner than the dog who loves
  playing outdoors, digging holes and swimming.
• So here comes the answer to your question - How
  frequently should I bathe my dog? You can bathe
  your dog once every three months. If your dog is
  a bag of grime, you should bathe him once every
  week. Use gentle Dog Shampoos like Bio-Groom
  Shampoo to prevent fur shedding.

1. Get all dog grooming supplies

• Before you give a shower to your dog, buy all Dog
  Grooming Products like shampoos, conditioners,
  Dog Grooming Dryer, etc. to name a few. Use a
  dog-specific shampoo like Bio-Groom Shampoo which
  is natural and gentle. It also helps prevent skin
  irritations and dryness. You should also get
  cotton balls to soak the water inside a dog's
  ears.

  prior to bathing your dog, give 5 to 10 minutes

  excess hair.

3. Keep all things within your reach

• After drenching your pup in water, you need to
  keep all the things nearby. Be ready with a towel
  and a Dog Grooming Dryer, cup for scrubbing and
  dog treats (for post bathes). Make sure you don't
  leave your dog inside the tub. When you are not
  around just release him in the house.

4. Watch out for water temperature

• Hot or cold? Well, it's Lukewarm! Many dog owners
  have queries about whether to bathe their dogs
  either in hot or cold water. However, always use
  lukewarm water only. Extreme hot water could burn
  your dog's skin and cold water could lead to a
  cold. Always go in between not too hot, not too
  cold!

5. Clean from top to bottom

• You can follow the bathing instruction on a
  shampoo bottle. Either you can take a small
  amount of Dog Shampoo and use circular motions to
  work up the lather. Pay special attention to
  their paws as they are usually dirty. Begin with
  feet and work your way up to its face. This
  action will prevent dripping soap into their
  eyes.
