Your dog does not need to bathe as often, once a month is enough. Bathing will often cause skin and hair to dry quickly.
If you have a small short haired dog, it is easy to bathe in the sink with a rubber mat in the title or in a small tub with you sitting on a stool. If you have long hair, big dog, it's best to bathe outdoors and the garden or on the patio, or if this is not possible, in a bathtub with a rubber mat to prevent your dog from slipping.
Make sure you have everything you need with you before putting your dog in the bathtub. Bring your old clothes and be ready for a bath yourself! I do not recommend putting cotton balls in your dog's ear to prevent water from getting in. It absorbs more water, and ears. Just be careful that water penetrates into his ears and he will be fine. Use a dog shampoo, do not use human shampoo or any other solution will be too harsh on the skin or fur of your dog in the long run. Prepare a thick absorbent towel to clean your dog after bathing.Bathing dogs Dog shampoo is usually quite concentrated, it may not be able to spread easily when washing your dog's skin. Therefore, diluting the shampoo with approximately 50% of water. You can prepare the solution in another flask to future use.
Before bathing your dog, you should brush your hair away from knots, mats, tangles, dead skin shedding. This is an important step that you can not miss! Wash the dog without this step does not remove these skins, but cause waste and block orders resulting from infection of the skin afterwards! Get a good grooming tool as Shed Blade for short-haired dogs. If your dog is too badly matted, it's time to take it to a professional groomer.
After brushing your dog, remove dead skin around before bathing to prevent clogging of the drainage.
