What is the first thing to do when the puppy comes back?

Many people bathe their dogs to keep them healthy. But some pet owners don't know what to do and worry about being bad for other dogs. It's actually not that hard to solve: first quiet the dog, and then start bathing it. These three steps are very important.

1. Clean environment

The first thing to do is to bathe the dog. After the dog comes back, first use a vacuum cleaner to clean the environment. If you go to the pet store to take a bath, it is best before the owner goes to work. Secondly, after bathing the dog, it is best to brush the indoor floor, and then use a hair dryer to dry the moisture in the room. Of course, if the dog is tired of staying at home, the owner can also take them to the pet shop for a bath after they come back. Because puppies at home can easily make the house dirty, if the owner does not clean it at home, it will easily bring the bacteria and viruses on the dog into the home, causing more serious problems such as disease and death!

1.1. Ground

Although the dog will lick the ground to wash, the owner can not let it go! Especially on the indoor floor, they usually play on the floor often. If the water on the wooden floor is splashed everywhere, it will cause the water on the ground to be very dirty, which will directly stain the floor! Therefore, it is best for the owner to sprinkle the right amount of water on the dog, so as to keep the ground dry. At the same time, wipe the floor slowly with a damp towel dampened with warm water, which can make the floor cleaner! In addition, the owner can also do disinfection and cleaning to the floor, for example: just brush the water on the floor with a brush!

1.2. Bathroom

In addition to the room, a bathroom is also an easy place for dogs to enter. Because after taking a bath, the bathtub, washbasin, mop, towel, etc. are easily covered with bacteria and viruses. Especially if the bathroom is not dried in time, it is easy to cause the body odor to worsen! So clean your bathroom regularly so it stays dry and healthy! If there is only one bathtub in the home, the owner can use it for bathing or soaking feet. If there are multiple bathtubs in the home, you should avoid using the same bathtub, you can choose to separate the bathtub to wash!

1.3. Hair

Anyone who has owned a dog knows that if the hair on the dog is longer, then the hair on their body will be thicker, which will not only affect their appearance but also affect their health. Therefore, after bathing the dog, the owner must clean up the hair in time. But be careful not to use too much force to avoid injury to your dog. Also, the owner should remember to trim the dog's nails, so as to avoid being scratched by the nails.

2. Clean the hair

When you bathe your dog, wash all of its fur. Be careful not to mess up her hair here, because it's too much trouble taking a shower. If you don't groom your dog, bacteria can grow and you can even get parasites.

2.1. Comb the dog's hair with a soft towel

Puppies have very long hair, so they need to be brushed many times to get the hair done. Gently dab the hair with a towel to make it smooth and hair-free, then wipe with a dry towel to remove any remaining shampoo and conditioner. The hair must be combed along the hair, do not pull hard, otherwise it will easily lead to inflammation.

2.2. Wash the dog's hair with a special dog shampoo

This is one that washes off all the hair on your dog and acts as a cleanser and conditioner.

In addition, pay attention to the temperature and water temperature when bathing the puppy, not too hot or too cold.

2.3. Wash and comb the hair with a mild shampoo

Dogs can get all kinds of dirt. So after bathing your dog, be sure to use a pet-specific body wash to clean his body. Pet-specific body wash is also a more suitable product for dogs. Its ingredients are mild, non-irritating, and non-irritating to the skin. Pet-specific shampoo can remove many areas on the dog that are not easy to clean, and can also help with beauty and skin care.

After getting wet, the pet mainly uses a clean towel to dry the dog's body, and then gently applies the body wash to the dog's head, neck, and tail. Finally, use the shampoo to gently massage every part of the dog's body until everything is clean after washing.

At this time, if the dog is unwilling to accept a bath, the pet owner can try to tempt it with a snack. But remember to be gentle when using snacks~ The above is the first thing to prepare for the puppy! Attention pet owners!

You can also buy some Wang Xiansheng to let the dog smell the smell of the kennel. Or opt for a spray with pet deodorant. This not only reduces the dog's odor but also keeps the owner's odor clean.

4. The bathing time for the dog should be controlled within two hours, and the surface moisture should be dried after each wash.

The dog's hair is long, and washing too much will make it dependent and prone to shedding on its own. Therefore, the bathing time for dogs should be controlled within two hours, that is, about half an hour or so. If you don't want your dog to be in the water for a long time, you can also wash him a week in advance, which will make him feel more comfortable. Don't forget to dry the surface after washing it to prevent the dog from catching a cold. After washing, use a dry towel to help them dry the body and ears of moisture, otherwise, bacteria can grow. If your dog accidentally slips, or if it gets other items wet while playing in the water, clean it up promptly.

If your dog isn't cooperating, don't use toiletries and medications. Because dogs are not professional pets, they are inherently ticklish. Some dogs are particularly sensitive to body skin irritation, and if they don't dry their skin surface moisture in time after a bath, they will be prone to illness. If the dog has not dried the skin after washing the whole body, it means that there is a certain gap between you! So be sure to check these areas carefully after you bathe your dog, and don't let them feel that some areas are too dirty or that some water is present.

4.3. Use a hair dryer to dry the dog's body and then wipe the shower gel on it. After that, you can also help the dog to tidy up the hair.

When grooming, pay attention to whether there are bugs or dirt on the hair. A freshly clipped puppy may be itchy, so don't force it, it will only backfire. Don't throw your dog in the kennel immediately after bathing, keep it moist in a sunny place.

4.4. If the dog runs around indoors or falls asleep against the wall after taking a bath, wipe the wall in time before going out.

Although puppies do not need to be dewormed in time when they are 6 months old, they should be dewormed after one year of age.
