With more and more families with pets, how to provide a comfortable living environment for pets has become the focus of more and more people. In particular, bathing pets not only keeps pets clean, but also prevents health problems such as ** diseases. However, there are some taboos about bathing Pomeranians, and the following is an introduction to the six taboos of Pomeranian bathing to make your Pomeranian refreshing and healthy!
1. Avoid frequent bathing
Some owners will bathe the Pomeranian frequently in order to keep it clean. But doing so will destroy the Pomeranian's protective layer, leading to problems such as dryness, itching, and dandruff. In general, bathing a Pomeranian 2-3 times a month in the summer and 1-2 times a month in the winter is fine.
2. Do not use human shower gel
The pH of humans and pets is different, and the use of human shower gel can be a burden on Pomeranians, and even cause allergic reactions. It is advisable to use a body wash that is specially designed for pets and make sure to match the pH of the Pomeranian.
3. Avoid basking in the sun immediately after bathing
A Pomeranian dog that has just finished bathing is relatively weak, and if it is allowed to bask in the sun immediately, it will cause an increase in body temperature, causing adverse reactions such as heat stroke. Therefore, after bathing a Pomeranian, dry its body with a towel and let it air dry naturally.
4. Don't pay attention to the water temperature
The water temperature for bathing a Pomeranian should be moderate, not too cold or too hot. Overheated water will dry out the Pomeranian's **, and overheated water will cause **burns. In general, the temperature of the bathwater should be close to that of a Pomeranian, around 35-38 degrees Celsius.
5. Don't comb your hair
Before bathing a Pomeranian, be sure to comb its coat, especially for long-haired breeds. Grooming your hair removes dirt and dead skin for a better bathing effect. At the same time, grooming can also promote blood circulation and enhance the Pomeranian's immunity.
6. Don't pay attention to blow drying
After bathing a Pomeranian, be sure to use a hair dryer to dry the moisture on its body thoroughly. If it is not blow-dried, the Pomeranian is prone to problems such as ** disease. When using a hair dryer, pay attention to lower the wind temperature and appropriate distance to avoid scalding the Pomeranian**. At the same time, be careful not to let the hair dryer blow on the Pomeranian's ears and eyes.
