EPET PAWS - EPET PAWS

Once a month, Kiki goes to the pet shop to take a bath, and by the way, squeezes the anal glands (Kiki's hands are not allowed to squeeze). On weekends, Kiki will bathe Kiki at home ~

Kiki loves to play with water, but he doesn't like to take a bath. Every time Kiki says "take a bath", or when he sees me preparing an absorbent towel or a water blower, the little guy knows to take a bath! Then began to hide under the sofa, under the table, all kinds of non-cooperation.

The reason why ❤ Kiki doesn't like to take a bath

1, Kiki doesn't like the bathtub, so Kiki usually uses the shower to bathe him.

2, Kiki is afraid of high pressure water injection, the little guy will run away if he rushes on his body.

3. If the water temperature is too cold, it is easy to catch cold. If it is too hot, Kiki doesn't like it.

4. The last thing Kiki is allowed to touch is his head, so Kiki gives up the shower head to wash his head and uses a wet towel to wipe it gently.

5. I don't like the sound of the water blower after taking a shower.

6. I don't like the feeling of the strong wind blowing on my body.

So giving Kiki a bath is not that simple, there are a lot of things to pay attention to.

Today, ki Ma will tidy up ~

❤ Prepare items

Comb, massage comb, bath lotion, dilution bottle, bath towel, absorbent towel, water blower, leave-in hair spray, cotton swab, eye cleaner, ear cleaner, nail sharpener, claw cream, snacks.

❤ Prepare before taking a bath

1. Comb the hair before bathing, so that the hair will not fall off so much when bathing, especially the knotted hair will be unknotted first.

2. Dilute according to the characteristics of the bath lotion. If it is not diluted, it is easy to stimulate the dog's skin. Of course, there are bath lotions that do not need to be diluted. Please check the detailed instructions before use.

3. Put all the items in the standby position so as not to be in a hurry.

❤ Bathing steps

1. Take Kiki to the bathroom kindly and feed him snacks if necessary.

2. Adjust the water temperature to about 38 °, and turn down the water injection, so that the water outlet can be softer ~

3. Don't rush your head at the beginning. Wet your hair slowly from the tail and let Kiki get used to it.

4. Cotton balls can be plugged when flushing ears, but Kiki is not allowed to plug, so Kiki will use his hands to press Kiki's ears down to flush, to avoid water in the ears, and his face will be wiped with a wet towel.

5. Use the bath lotion after the hair of the whole body is wet. After the bath lotion bubbles in the palm of the hand, apply it evenly on the whole body of Kiki and massage it with a massage comb.

6. The order of massage and rubbing is generally: back, head and neck, shoulder, waist, chest, feet, pp, tail. Massage brush is helpful for the bath lotion to reach the deep hair and clean it deeply.

8. Choose a tear-free formula for the bath lotion, which is less irritating to the eyes.

9. Finally, rinse the bath lotion carefully to avoid residue.

10. Wrap Kiki in a bath towel and dry it with an absorbent towel. Be careful not to catch cold.

11. Wipe the hair to a non-dripping state, dry the hair with a constant temperature blower, comb the hair while blowing, and blow it to about 80% dry.

12. Spray the leave-in hair conditioner and massage gently to make the hair softer, and then dry the hair thoroughly.

Care after washing

1. Clean ear canal with a cotton swab, not too deep, so as not to hurt Kiki.

2. Apply special ear drops for pets and clean/care the ear canal.

3, Kiki eyeball will be uncomfortable after encountering water, Kiki will be washed with eye drops, also as a daily care.

4. Trim your nails. Kima uses an electric nail sharpener to avoid hurting the blood line if it is too short.

5. Finally, apply paw-protecting cream to Kiki's small meat pad and gently massage ~ ~

At this point, Kiki's set of washing and nursing process is finally completed! Feed a snack and reward ~

Fragrant, white and tender Kiki out of the bath ~ ki hemp is almost tired ~ ~

What if you are afraid of the water blower?

By the way, how to make Kiki get used to the water blower.

1. Put the Kiki in a narrow and high place to prevent the Kiki from moving and fleeing.

2. Kiki is afraid of the sound of the water blower. Turn on the water blower to the minimum power, give him some snacks, slowly comfort him, turn it off after a while, try several times, and then gradually increase the power after adapting to the minimum power.

3, Kiki resists the force of the wind blowing on the body, first keep the tuyere away from Kiki, slowly pull in, or first use the lowest wind to blow him, wait for the habit, and then slowly adjust to the high level.

4. Avoid blowing directly on your face and ears. Try to blow over your ears, it hurts!

In fact, it is a process of getting used to it. After getting used to it, Kiki will cooperate with it!

Matters needing attention in bathing

Finally, let's talk about some precautions for dog bathing.

1. Pregnant dogs, two-month-old puppies and dogs with physical discomfort should not be bathed. Dry cleaning foam or dry cleaning powder can be used to remove dirt and odor.

2. Dogs that have just been vaccinated are not recommended to take a bath immediately, especially those that have not been fully vaccinated. Dry cleaning products can still be used.

3. Dogs who have just arrived at home are also advised not to take a bath immediately, observe for about a week, wait for the dog to adapt to the new environment, and then take a bath.

4. Do not choose human bath lotion for dogs. The skin of dogs is weakly alkaline. The PH value of human bath lotion is alkaline. Dogs are prone to hair loss and dryness.

5. Bathing should not be too frequent, depending on the situation, usually once a week in summer and once every two weeks in winter. Washing too frequently is harmful to the protective layer of dog skin oil, but more likely to cause skin problems.

All right, that's all for today's sharing. I hope it will be helpful to my pet friends.
