Can a pregnant dog be bathed?

Pregnant dogs can be bathed. The owner can bathe the dog once a week or 10 days. The indoor temperature must be suitable when bathing to prevent the dog from catching a cold. However, from one month before birth to the full month of the puppies, the female dog cannot take a bath, because the dog’s body resistance at this time is very weak and it is easy to be infected by germs.
Precautions for bathing a pregnant dog:
1. First, comb the dog’s entire body. Be careful not to comb the dog’s abdomen too hard to avoid movement. Fetal air, then let the dog adapt to the water temperature and then start to wet the whole body.
2. The water temperature should not be too low to avoid causing the dog to catch a cold. Do not rush the water into the dog’s ears during flushing. After rinsing, apply dog shower gel all over the dog's body and massage evenly with your hands. Pay attention to the intensity of the massage and do not rub the dog's abdomen. If the dog's abdomen is very dirty, use a sponge to clean it. Rinse the foam with clean water. Finally, use a hair dryer to dry the dog's fur and comb it.
3. If the dog is not very dirty, you can use dry cleaning agent for dry cleaning. Dry cleaning agent is a powder that removes excess oil from the fur and makes the color of the fur more vivid. When using, sprinkle the dry cleaning powder into the dog's hair and comb it with a comb. However, the dry cleaning method is only suitable for dogs with short hair and more undercoat.
