First, bathing your dog should be done in the morning or noon. Do not bathe when the air humidity is high or on rainy days. Immediately after washing, blow dry with a hair dryer or dry with a towel. Never leave a dog in the sun to dry after bathing.

Second, you must comb the coat before taking a bath. This can not only comb out the tangled hairs and prevent the coat from getting more tangled, but also remove large pieces of dirt for easy cleaning. Especially around the mouth, behind the ears, armpits, inner thighs, toe tips, etc., the parts that dogs are least willing to let people comb should be combed clean. When combing, in order to reduce and avoid the pain of the dog, you can hold the root of the hair with one hand and comb it with the other hand.

Third, the temperature of the bathing water should not be too high or too low. Generally, 36-37 degrees is appropriate in spring.

Fourth, be sure to prevent shampoo from flowing into the dog’s eyes or ears when bathing. Be sure to flush thoroughly and do not leave soap foam or shampoo on the dog to prevent skin irritation and dermatitis.
