Bathing dogs is one of the things you should be aware of if you raise a dog. Bathing it is one of the basic things that you should pay attention to because the dog’s cleanliness means keeping it healthy.
Bathing can be scary for dogs, but with a little knowledge and preparation you can make bathing your dog a fun experience.
The most important steps:
- Preparing the right place:
If your dog is very small, you can bathe him in a small tub. Larger dogs can be bathed in a tub or shower. If it is not cold, you can bathe your dog outside.
- Prepare your pet for a bath:
Brush your dog's entire coat before bathing.
This is especially important if his coat is thick, shaggy, or matted. Make sure to remove any tangles or mats.

- How to bathe your pet:
1. Wet your pet's body with water:
Wet him from the neck area to the back and make sure his fur is completely wet.
It is recommended that you do not wash your pet's head or face.
2. Apply shampoo:
If your dog's coat is very thick or long, you may want to mix some shampoo with water in a small cup before you begin. This will help you get the suds all over his coat.
You can get the right type of shampoo for your pet from the store. Pets Time :

3. Wash your pet's body with water:
It is important to rinse all shampoo residue from your dog's coat. This may take some time to do completely, especially if your dog has thick or double coat.
4. Clean your pet's face:
If your dog's face is dirty, use a damp towel to wipe away the dirt. Do not clean inside his ears with the towel as this will make the ears wet and promote infection.
5. Dry your pet:
Place the towel over your dog's back and pat him dry. Do not rub the towel as this can cause matting in long-haired breeds.
6. Comb your pet's fur:
If your dog's fur is very long or shaggy, you will want to brush it while it is wet to avoid tangling.
7. Give your pet a reward:
To keep your dog's association with bathing strong and positive, give him a treat every time you wash him.
