my dog still stinks after ive kept her in the house and bathe her in shampoo and perfume what should i do?

Answer 1

Take your dog to a groomer and let them thouroughly clean her. Do not use human perfume, there is a spray made specifically for dogs.
YOu can only bathe your dog once /month roughly and there are also dog wipes available for the in-between.
If you go to a pet store you can speak to a professional about your dog's specifics

My two dogs were sprayed by skunks, one twice and the other 3 times, in one year! The hydrogen peroxide mix does work and the ingredients are usually found in your cupboard in the middle of the night. It just dries out their hair and skin so be sure to moisturize!

Answer 2

Is this from being sprayed from skunk? If so, DON'T USE TOMATO JUICE/PASTE, their skin is not used to exposure and the acid in it will irritate their skin. You need a base, you can't fight acid with acid. Go online, there's a recipe which include liquid dish soap, peroxide and baking soda, you gotta make it fresh every time. I hope you didn't use human shampoo to bathe her, because that's another skin irritant for them. Human shampoo has a higher pH level than dog shampoo. Perfume, your dog may lick it and be poisoned by it. Again if it's caused by a skunk, give your dog, depending on the size some plain white yogourt to remove the smell and taste from its mouth. If you have a chihuahua, just a capful is fine. Make sure when you give her the mixture shampoo you leave it on for about 5 minutes.

Answer 3

If your dog has been sprayed by a skunk, here is supposedly the

best recipe for ridding a dog of skunk smell on a dog.


Home remedy for removing skunk odor from a dog:

1 quart 3% hydrogen peroxide
1/3 cup baking soda
1 Tablespoon liquid dish soap

Mix ingredients together. The mixture will fizz and may explode
if kept in a closed container, so use it up each time you mix it
and don't try to save the rest. Use a sponge to apply the
solution to your dog, kneading it into his coat; avoid the eyes,
nose, and mouth as you sponge the face gently. Rinse thoroughly
with lots of water. To be effective, this treatment must be
applied within four hours after exposure to the skunk spray.

Answer 4

It's possible that she may have skin allergies. I have seen numerous dogs with skin allergies, and they do smell even after a bath.
I would recommend taking her in to see the vet, just to make sure that it is not a yeast or bacteria infection. Then have them bathe her in a medicated shampoo. We have numerous clients with this problem, and the medicated shampoos work wonders. The vet will also tell you which kind of allergy pill, and the correct dosage, this will give her some relief in between baths.
She may also need some antibiotics or steroids to get her started on the healing process.
Good Luck!

Answer 5

if she is very old then they do tend to smell and there is not much you can do about it. If she is young then dont bath her to often say more than once a fortnight as this can make them smell doggy. Let her out in the fresh air and run around to air her coat - dont forget dogs cant sweat through their skin only their feet. She may have a skin condition that can make them smell, maybe get her checked out by the vet. Dont use doggy cologne too much either on her coat just a little maybe and some on her bed

Answer 6

I had a shi tzu who always smelled w/in a day of a bath. and every time we washed her the water would turn brown like she hadnt been washed in months. She was also kinda oily, like our hair gets if we go a few days without washing it. It turns out she had some sort of skin condition. WE took her to the vet and she had all these perscriptions, but my grandparents didnt want to keep paying for it, so we just bathed her a couple times a week, and pretty much let her stink. wasnt her fault she smelled, lol.

Answer 7

OUST! Just kidding. *chuckle*

I use something by Simple Solution called "Refresh Deodorant for Pets". It smells like apricots, but isn't just a perfume. It gets rid of the odors. That is the spray that you can use just whenever. They also make a shampoo, use them in combination and it should help you out quite a bit.

Answer 8

Human shampoo is too harsh for dogs, even baby shampoo. Use only pet shampoo. You did not say what type of dog, some have double coats and bottom coat will take a while to dry thoroughly.

Answer 9

i =hope= that U have -Not!- bathed the poor thing in perfume;

it's not meant for allover use; just for DABbing, on pulse-points.
in case Ur mom didn't tell u so, perfumes & colognes are Not! 'healthy'; they use some pretty evil chems in them.

so now Ur poor dog is suffering from the STINK, maybe licking the stuff in an effort to get it off, INHALING it [bad for her lungs, liver/kidneys, etc], & absorbing it thru her skin...
if Ur dog shows ANY sign of poisoning, Please!!: get off-line & get to the vet's!!
[yup, perfume is poisonous; should only be used in small Amts.]
=================

i don't see any mention of Ur dog being "skunked"; i'm going to assume that she has -Not- been sprayed by a skunk.

what -May= be causing the 'stink' is metabolic problems, allergies, disease, dental probs, or infections.

as U can see, this is an extensive list; the only GOOD way to narrow it down is a good vet.

likely possibilities?
* infected tooth, infected ear, skin infXn/condition: yeast, abscesses, MITES, a fungal infXn, etc etc

* FOOD ALLERGY: 1 in 5 dogs in the USA have one or more food allergies; the top causes are WHEAT [wheat germ, wheat flour, etc], CORN [any form, including flint corn, corn meal, corn syrup, etc], & SOY: soybeans, soy protein, soybean oil, whatever.
avoid all 3; corn is indigestible to dogs, as they are not a long-gut herbivore, but a short-gut omnivore- they can digest -some- veg protein, but corn's analysis only looks good on the label.
ditto SOY: lotsa cheap protein, that dogs cannot break down/absorb.
WHEAT is low-protein, & a very common dog-diet allergen; skip it.
================
ask Ur vet to see if there's any clear reason for her bad smell; if she needs a dental cleaning, DO IT.

anal glands can also infect or impact, but adding a safe source of high-fiber is much SAFER & less irritating/potentially dangerous than MANUAL Expelling.
plain canned PUmpkin is a safe, high-fiber source, that smells tasty & adds very few calories; if the dog is FAT or pudgy, it's a safe substitute for =part= of their usual meals.
deduct No More than 1/4 the usual amt of the meal [Measure this- not by "scoop", but always actually -measure- the dog's food: 1 cup = 8 oz, etc.]

so for simplicity, as an example, Ur dog gets 1 Cup AM & PM; U deduct 1/4 C of kibble, sub 1/4 C of pumpkin, & put the remaining 3/4 C of kibble in the bowl. Stir- most dogs eat it the very 1st time, no problem.

the extra fiber puts pressure on the anal glands as the dog's BM exits, & it helps to evac the glands with no risk of infXn or inflammation; it's a simple, safe diet for a pudge-puppy to reduce that thick waist.

TO REALLY PEEL EXTRA #'s OFF: U have to -increase- exercise, too.
if the dog is really hefty, ask the vet abt safe forms of increased exercise; don't ask a fat dog to JUMP after a ball or frisbee, a ruptured ACL won't help them lose wt.
Walking in Water, Wading, or Swimming are low-load, safe exercise - but ask Ur vet anyway.

=============
a good-quality dog-food starts with MEAT, not grain, not 'byproduct' anything; it then has ONE carb-source, of oats, rice, or another non-allergen food; & ONE fat/oil source.
sunflower oil or soy-oil aren't good; & everything listed AFTER those should be a vitamin, a mineral, or a nutriceutical [Omega-oil source, green-lipped mussel extract, whatever].

Answer 10

i have a stinky dog too, and i started using an oatmeal based shampoo from the pet store that is good for his skin too, it took care of his odor just fine, but certain types of dogs are just naturally that way, or it could be something in its diet.
