Easy Dog Clean-Up Without A Bath

Over-bathing most dogs can lead to dry skin issues. To avoid this problem, use a simple four-step process in between baths.

  1. Sprinkle baking soda into your dog's coat and comb out thoroughly with a wire brush.

  3. After thoroughly combing, use aloe baby wipes in a forward-then-backward motion. Dogs with long hair will require 5 or more wipes. Shorthaired dogs will take about three.
  4. Brush out with soft bristle brush.
  5. To finish, coat your hands in baby oil and run through your dog's hair, back and forth. This simple process reduces odor and helps keep your dog's coat healthy and clean.

I will definitely try this, because it's to hard on the back bending over in the tub. Thanks a lot.

I'm so glad this will come in handy for you and your pets! It's a great way to keep skin and coat healthy without over washing, which can really dry the skin out and break your back!

What if they lick their fur, won't they ingest some of the baby oil?
