If a dog lives in your house, then often its specific smells can give you difficulties and inconveniences. To get rid of these smells, some simple rules must be observed. The simplest thing is regular bathing of the dog, washing with special means. Since the dog by nature does not have sweat glands, smells emanate only from its wool cover. Getting rid of a dog, as you know, is not an option. It must be ensured that the dog does not walk in places in which he can again dirty the wool and especially did not ride there, otherwise your labors will be wasted, and again the smell will appear.
Much depends on what you feed the dog. Odors arise from improper metabolism, from lack of vitamins, trace elements. If you can not get rid of the smell in any way, you should contact your veterinarian. The smell can also persist in connection with the diseases that have arisen in the dog, for example, fungi.
Some manufacturers, manufacturing cosmetics for dogs, also produce perfumes. Think carefully before using them. The smell of perfume mingles with the dog's smell, and the atmosphere in the apartment will become absolutely unbearable. And if your dog does not smell, then there's no point in using these dog spirits.
Cleaning the skin of a dog.
To get rid of the smell of the dog, it is recommended to regularly clean its coat. In the wool cover of the dog there is accumulation of natural fats, which in due course, in connection with rancidity, give off unpleasant odors. It is recommended to comb the dogs with a brush or comb every day, which will help remove the cover of thick undercoat, attracting moisture and causing a strong smell. Combing better against the coat daily, and even more so during the moulting period of the dog. If the comb is wetted with water, this will help you to comb the fallen hair.
To get rid of the smell, trimming dogs.
Since getting rid of the smell of a dog is sometimes not easy, if it's meaning to trim a dog. As you can see, dogs do not know how to use toilet paper. Therefore, in the anus area, particles often stick very odorously. This is especially true for animals that have a soft long hair, as well as animals that are not very mobile, unable to clean themselves. Veterinarians recommend wool trimming at the base of the tail, and very briefly, and from time to time carefully wash out these places.

In this case, you can suspect a serious illness.

Let us dwell on the washing of dogs in more detail. With the bathing of your pet, no problems should arise. Almost all dogs adore water procedures. Regularly, about once a week, bathing your pet using the right shampoo, you will almost certainly get rid of unpleasant odors. By the way, dogs living on the street need washing even less often. Previously, when quality shampoos for animals were in short supply, many breeders used children's soaps and shampoos to wash their pets, as they less irritated the skin of animals.
Remedies for fleas should be applied with extreme caution, only if they are already in the animal's fur, since these remedies are very toxic and can damage the skin. In any case, after using ordinary shampoos and products, and special, and antifungal, or against insects, as thoroughly as possible, rinse your pet's body with running water so that there is no irritation to the skin of the animal. A very important factor in bathing is the water temperature. It should not be very different from the room, so as not to adversely affect the skin of the animal.
