Kia mataara, e te puna! E 5 ranei nga huarahi hei pupuri i to kuri kia kore e paru

1. Turning into a navigator.

To begin with, it is better to develop a walking route in advance. It’s great if you can get to the walking area by private car. But if not, try to make your way through the cleanest places, squares and streets, where there are no puddles and less dirt. Of course, in bad weather it will still not be possible to completely protect the dog from pollution, but it is in your power to reduce them. 

2. We choose special clothes.

Thanks to the pet industry that now we can find any clothes for any dog: whether it’s a jumpsuit for a toy terrier or a raincoat for a Rottweiler. Properly selected clothing will protect the dog not only from dirt, but also from hypothermia. Don’t worry, your pet will be comfortable!

3. What about shoes? 

If you are tired of washing your dog’s paws 5 times a day, it’s time to think about special shoes. Shoes with rubber soles are made for dogs. It keeps paws dry, even if it pours like a bucket outside. A napkin and a brush – always with you! And ideally dry shampoo. The idea is that if the dog has local mild contamination, it is easiest to remove them immediately on the street, and not bring them into the apartment.

• Life hack! Express way to remove dirt.

“Dry” shampoos allow you to clean the coat without the use of water. Professional products quickly remove grease and dirt from the coat, leaving it clean and shiny. Dry shampoos are convenient to use on trips and at exhibitions. They are indispensable in cases where bathing is not recommended for pets: for example, for puppies and kittens, pets with wounds, elderly and debilitated animals, if a complete wash is not possible.

There are several lines of such shampoos: in the form of foam and spray. For example: dry foam shampoo ISB Traditional Line Moussette and shampoo spray without rinsing Bio-Groom Waterless Bath. How are they applied?

– Shake the bottle before use.

– Then you need to evenly distribute the required amount of the product locally or on the entire coat (depending on contamination), massage, wipe the coat with a dry towel or napkin after 3-5 minutes. Comb hair if necessary. Everything!

4. Wash quickly and efficiently.

It will be possible to manage completely without pollution. Even in good weather, it is recommended that the dog be thoroughly bathed once every three weeks (since the skin cell renewal cycle is 1 days). And washing paws is a “must have” in any weather, not only in the off-season.

To make washing effective and not harm your pet, stock up on professional shampoo and conditioner in advance. They must match the dog in color, coat type and skin. How to apply them? Consider the example of shampoo and conditioner professional brand Iv San Bernard.

• For washing the whole body.

— Shampoo ISB Traditional “Banana” for dogs and cats with medium length hair. It is diluted with warm water in a ratio of 1 to 3 and evenly applied to moistened wool. Leave on for 3 minutes and rinse off with warm water.

— Conditioner ISB Traditional “Banana”. After shampooing, apply evenly to the skin and coat with massaging movements. You need to massage for 3 minutes, this will speed up the absorption. The wool is then rinsed with warm water.

Choose shampoos and sprays depending on the type of animal’s coat: short, medium, long, coarse or for animals without hair.

5. Choose the right product for washing paws and beards.

Choose products that are suitable for washing your beard and paws. Professional shampoos quickly deal with even the most serious pollution, and use is either easy and pleasant. For example: Traditional ISB “no tears” shampoo-soap has a gentle, safe structure and is suitable for regular washing of the beard and paws of dogs of any age. It is enough to moisten the coat, lather, hold for three minutes and rinse – and the dog’s coat will again be spotlessly clean.

If it’s very dirty outside and you have to wash your dog’s paws several times a day, then in order to avoid overdrying of the skin and brittle hair, you can only do with air conditioning.

After bathing, dry the dog with a hair dryer, otherwise the skin under the wet coat will sweat. Because of this, dermatological diseases may occur.
