Choose a dog-friendly shampoo. Wet your dog thoroughly before applying shampoo to avoid skin irritation.
Use lukewarm water to bathe your dog. Avoid hot water as it can scald your pet's skin.
Gently massage the shampoo into your dog's coat, paying attention to areas like underbelly and paws.
Rinse your dog thoroughly to remove all traces of shampoo. Leftover residue can cause skin irritation.
Dry your dog with a towel or blow dryer on a low setting. Ensure your pet is completely dry to prevent infections.
Reward your dog with treats and praise after bath time to create a positive association with bathing.
