Just as hygiene is important for humans, the same is true for animals. In order to preserve their health, proper care and proper maintenance of hygiene with the means intended for this is necessary. It is extremely important to regularly clean the area where the pet stays, especially if your pet spends a lot of time outside and tends to get dirty.
Then, maintaining the hygiene of the pet itself, which includes bathing, combing, cleaning eyes, ears and teeth. When it comes to dogs, only their body should be washed when bathing, while the head and ears should be cleaned separately. The room where you bathe them must be heated and the water warm. When it is cold outside, the dog should not be taken out for at least two hours after bathing, so that it does not catch a cold.
In pets with longer hair, bacteria and dust can linger longer and cause inflammation or eye infections. That's why it is necessary to soak cotton wool or gauze with warm water or chamomile tea and clean the pet's eyes. Ears are also cleaned by soaking gauze or cotton wool in paraffin oil or ten percent alcohol solution.
Maintaining the oral hygiene of your pets means brushing their teeth, using appropriate toothpastes. Do not use pastes that are used by humans because they contain fluorides that are harmful to pets. You can find pastes in our pet shop, as well as various treats that are used to prevent tartar.
