Bathing Your Puppy – A Fun Part Of A Dog Health Care Routine

Keeping puppies clean is one hard task, and if you have ever tried it, you’ll know what I mean. However, in order to stay on top of good dog health care, it is important that you bathe your puppy on a regular basis. The way you bathe your puppy matters because you are teaching them, here and now, exactly what bath time will be like for the rest of his days. So, in order to have a clean, happy dog at the end, the way you go about your pet health practices is important and you should take the following advice:

To start with, you need to get your essential supplies in order. These include a coat-conditioning spray (for long-haired dogs) and a natural-bristle brush during times of heavy shedding. Also get a generously-sized towel to wrap your pooch in later. There will be lots of water splashing around shortly, so put some old clothes on. The entire affair will work better if your puppy is hungry; so do not feed him 6 hours before the bath. Call your puppy to you and offer a treat, remove his collar and give him a few more treats. Most importantly, you have to convince your dog that this is a fun process. Now it’s time for a thorough brush-and-comb. Any knots or tangles in your puppy’s coat will tighten and become worse when wet, so you want to comb out all tangles before turning on the tap. Get some conditioner on the fur and brush this through all the way to the ends.

Pay attention to the areas behind your dog’s ears. Also offer continuous praise and your puppy will think he is getting rewarded. Show him his toy and let him play with it a little in the tub before you turn on the water. If your puppy has sensitive eyes, use a baby shampoo on his head area. Don’t let the water touch the dog until you are sure it is the right temperature. Then the fun part! Gently spray mild warm water onto its fur. Apply some shampoo to your dog’s coat by massaging in circles for short coats, or massaging in long strokes with the growth of hair in long coats, to prevent tangling. Using the scrub brush, work the shampoo in. Once this is complete, rinse the shampoo and repeat the process. There’s always more soap that needs to be removed. Lastly, condition the fur and rinse – then your dog is ready to be wrapped up in a towel and dried off.
