can we bathe puppy daily?

Question

its smelly,how can i make it smell nice n clean by not bathing the puppy?

Answer 1

NO, that's too often. Dogs were not meant to have a bath every day.

Buy some grooming spray at your vet's office, spray it on your dog after it dries from it's bath (but make sure you don't spray it near your dog's eyes). It smells nice and will keep your dog stay fresh longer.

Answer 2

Puppies shouldn't be bathed everyday. All dogs have an oil that protects their skin. By washing this protective oil off, you are damaging their sensitive skin and could actually cause an infection.

Good, high quality food should make the coat nice and shiny with minimal to no odor. Some cheap store bought brands can make a dog smell bad.. Not the dogs fault. So, try a high quality, human-grade ingredient dog food and this should help, along with leaving the pup alone. Call a groomer and ask how often you dog should be groomed. Different breeds require different grooming intervals.

Answer 3

No, you shouldn't bathe your puppy daily. Dogs are susceptible to dry skin and the daily baths will irritate the puppy's skin, resulting in discomfort and possible hair loss. If the smell emanating from the pup persists after several baths (you're better off with once a week), you might want to go to a vet in case of infection, which can give off a pungent odor. Also, be certain the shampoo you're using is formulated for dogs. You NEVER want to use people shampoo on a dog!

Answer 4

If you bathe your puppy daily you will dry his skin out. You should not bathe him more often than weekly. There are products at the pet store that can be used in between baths. They are wet cloth type products that make the puppy smell better. Also you might try a powder in between baths.

Answer 5

It is not good to bathe your dog every day because of the skin drying and causes flakes from the dry skin If you go to the Pet store you will see some dog Cologne.THey have nice smelling one of all different names.L got a colonge for my dogs call""For The Lady not The Tramp. It cost me 12dollars. And it last a long time,so you would not need to buy it that often.I use it on my male dog too.{He can't read to see it was for the ladies.]

Answer 6

NO, i was an assistant groomer, do not do it every day, once a month is plenty, it will dry out their skin, there are products out there, dry shampoos, its a powder u can put on their coat that makes them "smell better" but ur aware that ur bought a dog right? dogs arent meant to smell "pretty" all the time lol and u may be smelling puppys breath, puppies have horrible breath but they grow out of it eventually, but please dont bathe him every day

Answer 7

That's just "puppy smell". Dogs are not meant to be bathed often. A few times a year is enough.

Answer 8

It's not the best idea. His coat will get all dried out and stuff. If the puppy's not potty trained yet, then that would probably explain the stench. Also, outdoor dogs get a lot smellier than indoor dogs.

Answer 9

Absolutely not! You'll dry his skin and coat out terribly. Don't bath him more than once a month at most - use a dog shampoo, luke warm water and rinse very thoroughly.

Answer 10

you probably shouldn't. dogs' skin is different than humans. i give my dog a bath about once a month and a couple times a week i spray her with doggie deodorant, available at petsmart, petco or any other petstore in the grooming aisle. it works pretty well i reccomend a baby powder scent.
