Dog bathing
Helping dogs bathe is for the sake of safety Let them keep themselves clean and prevent bacteria. Generally, we have a fixed order for bathing dogs. However, there are also some cases where dogs are not suitable for bathing. Such sudden bathing will cause a lot of irritation. The problem is even illness. Let’s take a look at it with the editor of Boqi.
1. Dogs during labor and lactation
Dogs shed hair very quickly during pregnancy and lactation, so the dog should be bathed before giving birth, otherwise the dog will lose its hair in the future. A dirty dog cannot be bathed during confinement, and the hair loss will be more serious. Fortunately, the owner can cut off the hair around the dog's butt before giving birth to ensure the dog's successful delivery and postpartum hygiene. Otherwise, the hair on the dog's butt will be contaminated with blood after delivery.
2. Dogs that have just been vaccinated
Dogs that have just been vaccinated cannot be bathed within a week because the dog’s immunity is very low at this time. Yes, there is no need to take the dog out to exercise. If parents feel that the dog is really dirty, they may choose to take a powder bath.
3. Dogs in poor physical condition
Dogs who have just recovered from serious illness and old and frail dogs are not suitable for bathing, because their immunity is relatively weak at this time and bathing is easy. If the dog catches a cold and is too dirty, parents can use washing powder or wipe it with a towel.
4. The dog that has just been vigorously exercised
The blood of the dog that has just been vigorously exercised is still in the hands, feet and muscles. Bathing immediately will easily cause blood supply to the heart and brain. Without feet, it is detrimental to health. So wait until the dog calms down before bathing.
5. A dog that has just had a meal
If a dog has just had a meal, the blood vessels in the skin of the dog will dilate after a sudden bath, and less blood will flow to the stomach. Causes indigestion and low blood sugar in dogs, making them prone to coma. So don’t take a shower immediately after eating drumsticks just now.
6. Extremely humid weather
Extremely humid rainy weather is not suitable for bathing dogs. After a dog takes a bath, his pores will open and his hair will appear on his head.The natural oils will shrink, which cannot be restored in a short period of time, and can easily cause disease.
Therefore, you must pay attention to the time and place when bathing your dog, otherwise it will easily get sick. Bathing your dog is also for his health and health, and it should not be counterproductive.
