Smelly dogs!

[Cherryblossom]

Does anyone have any hints for wipes or something that will make my dogs less smelly? They are constantly rolling in all sorts of nastiness in the fields and it’s making my house stink! They have a bath twice weekly, but would really need it twice daily to keep on top of it- I’m going to have to buy shares in febreeze at this rate!

And if course one of them is white, so shows everything!

My mum used this for her Pointer https://www.viovet.co.uk/Johnsons-Velvet-Coat-Conditioning-Spray/c59187/
You should probably check the ingredients as it was a few years ago but it definitely masked the smell of rotting carcass he likes to roll in!

Mine just have a tie up ring, hose and shampoo between the gate and the door. The offending portion gets washed.
Imo anything that is strong enough to mask really stinky stuff cannot be good for dogs to inhale. And definitely not nice for them. And I actually prefer cow muck to deodorisers!

We use 'dog disolver' aka washing up liquid, applied on a cloth with water deals with the smell of fox poo fairly well.

WUL definitely the only stuff that gets badger poo off, it’s so greasy ?

Tomato ketchup works too. Sweetened up a whippet who rolled on a dead sheep, but left him looking like he had been butchered for a few days....

I generally encourage a swim in the river and use the gravel in the bottom to scrub any smelly bits. Bit difficult at the moment because the river is high so hope the torrential rain washes it off before we get home, just watching it beat against the window...

Fox poo shampoo really works and they also do a tub of wet wipes which we keep in the car.

I have roughly sluiced the offending bit then sprayed it with my expensive Neal's Yard deodorant in an emergency. It worked.

I stick them under the warm hose when I can, but when I’ve got two young kids in tow I lack the necessary number of limbs to control them all!

Will definitely try some of these suggestions!

A friend of mine swears that tomato ketchup removes the smell from her labrador who seems to find fox poo anywhere and everywhere. Not sure how that would affect a white coat though. lol

Apparently tomato ketchup takes stains out of grey horses ?

I'm not being funny but have you considered equafleece or similar? My dog is a hippo in the mud and she's also mostly white so I just put her in a fleece which I then wash in a horsehair bag on allergy setting. I couldn't be dealing with washing her all the time, but I am lazy.
