My shih tzu don%26#039;t smell good?
Most puppies have an odor, some find it okay others are bothered by it. They grow out of it, although weekly bathing helps.


Be sure to use products for animals and not your shampoo. We went through the same thing with our Lhasa apso, he%26#039;s a year old now and doesn%26#039;t smell so bad, except when he%26#039;s been having fun in the rain and mud.





As the old joke goes: My dog has no nose!


How does he smell?


Bloddy awlful!!





Good luck and enjoy your puppy!
Reply:Consult your vet
Reply:1. Brush teeth daily (or at least put the dog toothpaste in their mouth -- like C.E.T. gel)





2. Brush and/or comb daily





3. Wipes paws and butt with babywipes after your dog comes in from outside.





4. Wash dog at least e/o week.





5. Full groom every 6-8 weeks.





6. Between washings use a puppy bathwipe.





7. Clean matter from corner of eyes and wipe inside ears with warm cotton pad. Dry ears.





8. Use a premium food like INNOVA puppy food until 10 months and then gradually switch to INNOVA EVO.





9. Stop feeding wet food if corrently doing so.





If all this doesn%26#039;t help, then take to vet to see if the dog has some type of bacteria.
Reply:First see a vet. If the smell is coming from the ears it could be an ear infection. Often bad doggy odor is because of the dogs diet. Our pets need quality pet food. Read the ingredients list and learn what the stuff on there is and what it does (or does not do) to/for our pets. A quick pet food 101. If the pet food contains corn/corn products or by products it is a poor quality food. Do not pay attention to advertising, they all say there food is great. Corn is a filler that can trigger skin problems. (allergies, skin problems, itching and excessive shedding) By products is anything from an animal not fit for human consumption, including cancerous tissue. Quality foods have meat as the first ingredient. California Natural, Solid Gold, Innova and Merrick are a few of the best brands available.
