Does your dog smell?  Smelly dogs are not pleasant to be around; however, there are little solutions to people with acute sense of smell – like myself.  Let me tell you that I can smell a dog from a mile away — just figure of speech. 

My dog smells horrible – at least to me anyhow. I taken the “beast” to the vet’s office about squeezing her glands and to the groomers, but they all told me that “she smells like a dog!”  What do you mean she smells like a dog?  Maybe I am oversensitive to dog smells (according to everybody I have talked with), but I can’t live like this. 

During the summer months it was easy to maintain her smell.  I can open the windows and give her regular showers outside with non-soap shampoo products (in oatmeal formula) to avoid drying her skin out.  However, since it is too cold outside I have to give the dog less showers – making sure her skin does not get dried out or diminishing her coat sheen or catching a cold.  

I have tried in-between showers/Deodorizing Bath Wipes and sprays for the dog, but they have a very strong fragrance to it.  Yes, they do smell great (after airing them out) for a day or so, but after that it leave a very strange/weird smell.    It leaves them smell grosser than before – it’s no longer a dog smell, but a strange smell – it’s really hard to describe the smell! 

Honestly, I am ready to hang a car freshener (those things you hang in the car that looks a Christmas tree: hehe) around her neck. 

Anyhow, I came across a bath oil spray product from *efa HyLyt.  Not only it conditions my dog’s skin (her skin is getting really dried out from the changes in the weather), but it also reduces her smell as well.  She still smells a bit, but I guess I can’t totally eliminate the “dog smell.” 

I think I paid around $9 a bottle, but I have already used for two months – so it really does last!  This spray is both for cats and dogs; I usually spray on her first and take the long prong plastic brush and brush the heck out of her – man, this dog sheds! 

I usually brush her every day, and my dog loves it – that dog goes into a “coma” from enjoyment of brushing.
