Here on the Soft Care Blog, we've already presented some articles on the importance of bathing dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regular bathing helps maintain general health, as well as preventing skin diseases such as dermatitis and other problems such as peeling skin, hair loss and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And during the summer, should the frequency of baths be increased?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first tip is to always consult your veterinarian, who will analyze your pet's situation and suggest the best frequency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But in general, an increase in baths does not mean problems, as long as possible changes in the animal's health are observed, especially in the skin and coat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ectoparasites increase in summer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ectoparasites are parasites that feed on the blood of animals, the most common being fleas and ticks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And one way of controlling ectoparasites is precisely by bathing dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, there are some basic precautions and considerations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to bathing, you also need to take care of the environment.

For example, playing with a hose. Dogs especially love this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a good way to refresh your pet, as well as making them happy with the games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But even a shower should end with post-shower care, such as drying well and using a moisturizer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, if your pet isn't used to regular baths, this is a good idea. They'll probably appreciate a hose bath, as it will cool them down on very hot days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This will make it easier for them to accept regular baths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And remember: for puppies, always use shampoos designed for their age, such as Cozy Bath<\/a> from Soft Care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other tips<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To ensure your pet has a pleasant and healthy bath, follow these tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Get to know Linha Dermato<\/a> from Soft Care, which has specific products for pet skincare, including sensitive and sensitized skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n See also other articles related to bathing pets:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dermatitis in dogs: important tips for prevention and treatment<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Pre-Shampoo Primer: the perfect preparation before bathing dogs<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n When to give puppies their first bath with shampoo?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
