A dog in great shape is, above all, a well-maintained dog. Its hygiene isn't limited to bathing: ear cleaning, dental care, paw pad protection...
Cleaning your dog's ears Ears are a sensitive area prone to infections, especially in dogs with floppy ears. Regular cleaning with an ear cleaner for dogs and also for cats helps remove earwax, dirt, bacteria, and prevent potential ear infections.
Brushing your dog's teeth
Tartar buildup promotes bad breath and gum disease.
For good oral hygiene, you can use a dog toothpaste daily with a soft toothbrush or your finger, or give your dog daily natural chews. If your dog doesn't like having its teeth brushed, mouth spray is a practical alternative.
Finally, if your dog is playful, you can also offer them a felted wool toy, as this type of wool naturally brushes your dog's teeth when they chew.
Protecting Your Dog All Year Round
Cold, heat, humidity... it's essential to adapt your dog's care to prevent discomfort and injuries.
Protect paws in summer and winter Paw pads are particularly exposed to external aggressions: scorching ground in summer, de-icing salt in winter, rough surfaces...
To prevent cracks and irritations, applying a paw balm for dogs is recommended.
After a walk, remember to clean them thoroughly with a dog paw cleaner.
Prevent parasites all year round Fleas and ticks are a plague for dogs. Regularly using an antiparasitic oil for dogs is essential to protect them from itching and the diseases they can transmit.
UV rays
They are also enemies not to be underestimated. A dog sunscreen protects sensitive areas such as the muzzle, ears, and belly from sunburn. But it also greatly protects short-haired, white, or light-colored dogs, whose skin is often visible.
