Dry ways to clean your pet…
Not all dogs are amenable to the idea of being bathed. But does that mean they would remain perpetually dirty? Of course not because there are alternative ways of keeping your pooch clean.
Dry shampoo available at a pet store can solve the problem. Rub the shampoo into his body without using water and then brush properly. However, before using it you should never forget to read the instructions. Other ways of keeping his coat clean are by using baking soda or a home made mixture of cornmeal and salt. Baking soda is a natural deodorant which keeps your pet’s coat bright and shining. All these methods are safe and convenient. Moreover, in this world of rising water crisis it’s high time that we start conserving water in our own little ways. Also brush your dog as often as you can especially when he’s shedding. Nylon brushes are good for long haired dogs while metal brushes are good for the medium haired ones. For the short haired dogs you can use either of them.
However, keeping the coat clean is just one aspect of it but other places like the ears, eyes, and teeth also need to be washed regularly. But how will you keep those areas clean? Very simple by using damp sterile cotton balls. While cleaning his teeth, however, soak the cotton ball in baking soda.
Having said all this we cannot ignore the importance of nails. Taking good care of nails is equally important because broken pieces can cause grievous injury to our paw pals. Either take him to a vet or clip his nails yourself. Embalm the nails with petroleum jelly so that you don’t confront difficulties during the clipping episodes.
