Grooming
No matter how much dogs clean themselves, they still smell funky. The reason dogs smell like dogs is that they do not sweat the same way we do. Additionally when the dog’s normal skin microorganisms, like bacteria and yeasts, are influenced by some external factors, many volatile odoriferous compounds are released.
Therefore, dogs need regular grooming. How often depends on the breed. The grooming session includes brushing, bathing, clipping the hair and nails and taking care of other sources of bad smell, such as ears, anal sacs and teeth.
Young puppies are a whole different story. Bathing young puppies is not advisable because their immune systems are underdeveloped and therefore they are very prone to getting cold. Instead of regular baths, you can use dog wipes and baby wipes or dry shampoos and powders.
