Why you have to use dog shampoo regularly on puppies

     Bathing of your dog is one of the best dog grooming practice. It will help to keep dogs skin healthy and shiny. You have to bath your dog frequently at least 2-3 times per week depending on dog coat type. However, just bathing with water is not enough, you have to use dog-grooming tools, such as dog shampoo, dog conditioner, dog shedding tool etc.

     Dog shampoo is specially formulated product designed according to pet skin condition and recommended only for the dog and not for any other pets. A reason why dog shampoo is different from other products is.

  • Dog skin has different PH as compared to human or other pets.
  • You need a product that acts differently to wash skin and coat.
  • It should nourish and improve dog skin as well as coat.
     Dog shampoo has a PH equal to dog skin, it acts differently to wash skin and coat and it nourishes the skin and coat of the dog. Because of all these features, dog shampoo is beneficial for dogs. It cleans all dirt and dust and keeps the dog free from skin problems. Regular use of shampoo will improve your dog health.

Why Human Shampoo is dangerous to dogs?

     The PH level of human skin ranges from 5.2 to 6.2, considered as acidic whereas the PH level of dog depending on the type of breed ranges from 5.5 to 7.5, considered as basic or alkaline. If you use human shampoo in a dog, it will imbalance skin PH and creates an environment ideal for growth of bacteria, viruses and fungi. Further, it makes the skin dry and itchy.

How to select dog shampoo?

     There are different types of dog shampoo such as regular shampoo, medicated shampoo, flea shampoo etc. If your dog has skin problems like flea, you can use flea shampoo. If the dog is suffering from skin infections, then you can use medicated shampoo. However, if your dog is healthy and do not have any skin issues, you have to use regular shampoo. Always read the label about ingredients, if you find any difficulty approach to your pet vet.
