Dog Shampoos And Conditioners
There are a plethora of dog shampoos available to bathe your pet dog. For many owners the choices can seem overwhelming when faced with so many options, when they just want a clean, fresh smelling pet.
The most important thing owners need to recognise when bathing their dog is that dog skin is different to human skin. This necessitates the use of dog shampoos and conditioners specifically made for dogs, and often specific for the age of the animal if it is a juvenile. These products are available from online pet supplies stores or pet shops.
Which Dog Shampoo is Right for My Dog?
As noted above, numerous products exist to bathe your pet. To ensure the most suitable product is chosen for your animal, the purpose of the bath needs to be known. For example, if a rapid flea kill is desired then a dog shampoo for fleas might be chosen; if the animal has sensitive skin a product containing a soothing agent such as oatmeal might be the most appropriate; if the dog needs bathing in conjunction with treatment for specific skin infections then a medicated dog shampoo might be indicated; or if just a general clean is required then an all-purpose animal shampoo may be used. Understanding what you are trying to achieve will help you to focus your search for a useful shampoo or conditioner into a narrower range of products.
How Often Should I Shampoo My Dog?
Animals should not be bathed too regularly. The natural oils of the coat can be stripped if the animal is over-bathed, resulting in dry or irritated skin. Regardless of the product/s chosen, the manufacturer's instructions should be followed carefully.
The dog shampoo or conditioner should be distributed deep into the coat and thoroughly rinsed off, leaving no residue. Naturally, leave-in products do not need to be rinsed off and these products may be of use in animals which are unsuitable for bathing due to illness or injury. Using a dog brush on your pet's coat will help to keep the natural oils flowing and your dog coat to look healthy and shiny.
