I think I own the smelliest dog in the world!! Even people with dogs think he's disgusting! I've tried nearly everything (grooming spray, doggy deo, dry powder shampoo, shampoo foam, wet shampoo, poodle parlor, tea tree oil spray, I've even sprayed him with febreze!!!!) and he still smells fusty!!!!!

Any suggestions?

moses

offer him sex and that will make him panting to keep clean

Had his **** glands and teeth checked. They are fine. It's his hair that smells. It's like doggy BO!!!! Imagine a normal dog smell and then make it 20 times worse!!!!

Smell not helped by the fact he walks round burping and farting!! YES!! I'm still talking about the dog before I get any comments about my other half!!!

Edited to say......MOSES YOU ARE SICK!!!!!!

*lmao* sounds like my bulldog, he'll sit n beg for food whilst at the same time farting and burping rite in front of you, obviously give him a bath spraying stuff on the dog will make him smell worse actually, u can get doggy perfume and aftershave too ya know expensive though

Markus

hmm, shave him! lol, well, maybe semi-seriously, maybe it's odd fur or something? This is why I love weimaraners, very short coat and no doggie smell, they do get cold though, poor things.

Could you be washing him too often?

Dogs Stink, it is their reason to exist

I stink therefore I am.....

Our Spaniel has a repotoire of various odours,

Plain Dog smell of varying strength
Wet Dog Smell
Fishy
Dung (once rolled in)
Pungent Dog Fart (it clings, like doggy napalm)
**** (mainly on the breath)
Halitosis
Soil
Grass Cuttings
Dead Rabbit (Eatit, roll on the remains)
Apricot (Dog Deodorant, smells like a mini cab)

Alas

My mothers bulldog has a permanently leaking ****. The smell is so bad that chemical Ali tried to sign it up for warfare. This dog farts just about every time it inhales.

Back to the main subject - if the hair smells that bad (assuming the dog is long haired) get it closely clipped and see if still as bad. Otherwise try the dry cleaners.
My big red psycho dog came in from the garden the other night looking pleased with himself and then he breathed out. The stink of rotten fish filled the room. He'd eaten some rank mussels that the seagulls must have dropped. Gave him one of those ice breath fresheners. You should have seen his face. He won't do that again

Get rid of it ?

Stinking **** machines they are

A"me"

Take him down to your local canal, get him wet, then grab him again and laver him up with tons of Dog shampoo.... then throw him back in!

Surely your vet has an Idea what to do?

**** me havnt laffed so much in ages at these replies. i would agree with the coat clipping thing. me mum clips dogs in her spare time and you want to see some of the sorry messes that come in to her. owners just can be arsed lookin after them properly so they bring them to me ma once every 3 months. you swear you can actually see the dog liven up when all the $hite is trimmed off because the feel so much better.

get the coat trimmed off. he may look stoopid for a while but at least it will eliminated the coat as the reason for the smell.

cheers

He's got a short coat! He's a Rotweiller Dobermann cross (would have posted a piccie but turbosport not playing anymore ). Thought about shaving him bald but wouldn't really be fair would it?!

Got home last night and noticed that he also has the worst case of dandruff EVER!!!!

Bloody animal!!!

Franx

Head & shoulders then??!..or how about sticking him through the carwash, as in that film..(can't remember what it's called - the one with the police dog in it..ok. whatever.

red_dog104

Turner and Hooch! (Sad) I really am dispairing with it now!

Reffro

No the film was K9 with James Belushi, the dog was tied to a Ford Mustang as it went through the car wash. I am the Sad fact king......

red_dog104

Ah! I stand corrected!!

Franx

Aye that's the one!Quite a good film as well!!
Did you ask the vet what to do about it?

Shy Muppet

The dandruff is probably a reaction to all the washing and attention the coat has been getting lately. It's not good for a dog's coat/skin to be washed so frequently. I wouldn't recommend tea-tree oil either as this is a very strong oil which plays havoc with sensitive skin.

red_dog104

I've not washed him for a long time, I've been suffering with the smell to see if he was reacting to being washed! He had dandruff when we first got him but that went away. For some reason it's back with a vengence!

The only thing I have been doing is putting flea treatment at the back of his neck.

I'm wondering if his smell is the reason his previous owners abandoned him (he's a rescue dog).

Jesus
I havent laughed so much in ages
We used to have a doberman and it brings back a lot of memories
He didnt stink, but he did like to roll in sheep p!ss
You wouldnt believe the stench thenand he would look so pleased with himself:confuesed:
And boy can dogs fart.
And they dont even have the decency to make a loud noise
Its just a quiet sssssss . Then wait till it hits you

Now i think back -
He did stink

LOL

Alas

Sure he's not got mange. Try one of these comb things to see. Especially if dandruff(or eczema) is appearing.
Mine's now got a bald patch due to an allergy and boy does it look daft. I've got the only punk dog in Fort William. Still due to his size, tombstone teeth and the red eyes no-one takes the ****. You'll need to get it sorted before the hair starts falling out.
Best of luck.
