Before bathing the dog, put on the collar so that it is easier to control when bathing. This does not seem to be applicable to many well-behaved dogs who have been "bathing" for a long time, but you can try it for dogs who are taking a bath for the first time.
2. Plug the ear canal
Use cotton swabs or cotton strips (do not use cotton balls, if the dog shakes its head during the bath, the cotton balls will automatically fall off) to plug the dog's T-shaped ear canal vertically. In addition, apply chlortetracycline ointment on the eyes to prevent bath fluid and dirty water from entering.
3. Flush
The direction of flushing is to clean the dog’s head first, then the body. Start flushing from the head and gradually move backwards. Don't grab it all over the head and face, just go wherever you go.
4. Grooming hair
Soak the dog's body with appropriate warm water, and gently comb the dog's fur to make the dog feel comfortable and quiet, and prepare for a bath.
5. Rub the whole body
First apply bath liquid on the dog's back, rub it from the back to the buttocks, and rub the whole body to create foam. Finally, wash the dog's head, ears, chin, around the anus, limbs, soles and other parts. It must be thoroughly washed, and attention should be paid to avoiding washing the foam into the dog's eyes.
If your dog is taking a bath for the first time, or is very uncooperative when taking a bath, as mentioned before, you can try using a collar to make it easier for you to control the dog. In this case, while you scrub gently, hold the dog's collar with one hand to prevent the dog from jumping out or getting water everywhere.
6. Let the dog stand still
If you put your dog in a tub or bathtub to take a bath, the water volume should be 5-10 cm deep, and a non-slip mat can be placed in the bathtub to allow the dog to stand firmly in the bathtub.
7. Use hair conditioner
Be sure to rinse thoroughly the remaining bath solution on the dog’s fur. After confirming that the remaining bath solution on the dog’s body is completely washed away, it is recommended to use conditioner every time. The acid-base balance is conducive to thorough washing. Bath fluid residue on dogs.
8. Dry the dog
The last step is to comb the dog's hair until it is completely dry. Sometimes, we see that the surface layer of the dog's hair is dry, but the bottom layer is still moist. At this time, to prevent the dog from catching cold, please do not let it blow cold wind. Dry the dog with a large towel that can wrap it completely, remove the cotton strips from the dog's ears, and wipe the ears clean. Wipe first with a towel, then blow dry with a hair dryer.
If your dog can adapt to the sound of the hair dryer, you can also use the warm air of an ordinary hair dryer to dry its hair. In order to avoid scalding the dog's skin, the hair dryer should be kept at least 30 cm away from the dog's fur.
