you can use dish soap (for hand washing dishes). just make sure to dilute it. ( 1 part soap/ 4 parts water)
make sure and do not get this in the eyes!!!! just use a wash cloth to wash around the face area.
my wife was a dog groomer for 20 years and this is what they used in the shop she worked at. make sure and use a cream rinse after. dawn dish soap will also remove fleas!!! it won't kill the eggs, but fleas can't stand the smell of it!!! and will litterly jump off the dog! i have even seen this happen when she gave our dogs a bath after visiting dogs gave the little pests to us! good luck and don't use this more than once every 6 weeks to keep from drying out the skin. make sure and brush the dog well before( to remove any matts that may be in the fur) and after ( to put natural oils back into the skin and fur)

Wonderful water. Seriously, take an old t-shirt or washcloth with water and scrub the fur, and the paint should come right off. Has always worked for me in the past. Same with the mud. Just use water.

Anything around the house will be too harsh for the dog, so just stick to water, and I promise your dog will be as clean as if you had used shampoo.... All the shampoo does is wash the natural oils out of the dog's skin/fur and that isn't a good thing!

Good luck.

Using human shampoo will strip the natural oils from the dogs coat and skin causing itching and dandruff. Even when using shampoo for dogs it's recommended not to bath more than once a month.

Use water only or use baby shampoo as a last resort

Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://biturl.im/aU25R

A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

Dog Training is all about getting your canine to behave well, but some people do it for sports and other entertainment purposes. Some of the other reasons people train their dogs are:

It rewarding since you get a sense of accomplishment once a dog can do something new.
It is a good opportunity to bond with the dog - this is important for the dog and for the owner.
You can make money when you train dogs as a business or for sport.
Training the dog is fun and it challenges the owner and the dog.
Different trainers have different techniques for training their canine. However, some techniques are more effective than others. To learn about the best techniques, visit a registered dog trainer, talk to a veterinarian, or do online or offline research.
There are several types of training that you, or a professional, can explore to train dogs and these are:

1) Behavior and obedience training: One training that is universal is behavior and obedience training. This is done on dogs of all ages, but it is better to start when the canine is a puppy because as they say, it is hard to teach old dogs new tricks. Behavior and obedience dog trainingbrings out the best in the dog and it makes understanding each other easier.

2) House training: House training is very important and it should also start when the dog is still a puppy. House training is all about training the dog to have house manners and to respect your space. There are several techniques used for this and they include crate training and pad training for training the dog to 'go' outside.

3) Positive reinforcement: Positive reinforcement is a new type of training approach and it is all about rewarding the dog for good behavior or for learning a new trick. All animals tend to perform better when there is a promise of a reward. Possible rewards are snacks, interaction with other dogs, giving the dog your attention, or giving the dog tug toys - the reward should take into consideration what the dog likes because dogs are different.

4) Negative reinforcement: Negative reinforcement training approach has been used for many years where the dog is punished for failure to learn or to behave properly, but this does not work because it only makes the canine scared and causes it to lose confidence. Negative reinforcement techniques included beatings and electric shocks.

5) Trick training: Trick training is done for fun, by those who want a sports dog, and those involved in other entertainment activities such as the circus. You should choose the dog carefully to avoid frustration because some dogs are easier to train than others.

6) Teething: It is important to train dogs when they are teething because they are under a lot of pain and they usually chew on furniture such as table legs, shoes, and even wallpaper. Possible training techniques for discouraging the chewing are bad-smelling sprays on items that are at risk and giving the dog chew toys.

7) Command training: It is possible to train dogs to follow commands. These commands include 'sit', 'attack', and 'fetch', among others. This requires patience and there are various techniques of dog training that can be used to achieve this such as giving rewards.

I'm doing basic obedience right now. My trainer hasn't once handled my dog. He has shown me how to handle my dog by using his own dog but that's about it. The reasoning is that I need to learn how to do these basic corrections and what not myself. Learn more https://tinyurl.im/PuBRQ

I have never considered sending my dog away for training. I guess I haven't found that much of a problem with him to even think about it.

Again, it may also have to do with the level of training you are looking for etc. No idea lol. I'm not a trainer. I think a first time dog owner needs to learn simple commands and how to handle their dog themselves as well.

Human shampoo will be fine. Follow up with a light conditioner. Make sure to rinse well. She'll smell deeelightful. I do it all the time with my golden retriever.
