Smelly Dog

If your dog is more smelly than dirty, skip the regular bath. It's a lot easier to get the odor out while his fur is more dry. You'll be better off taking him outside for this one:

First, start with brushing to remove any tangles. A drop of baby oil can help with the sticky or matted spots.

Next, use a solution of half apple cider vinegar and half water in a spray bottle. Spray it onto a cloth, not directly onto the dog, and then wipe the dog down, avoiding his eyes.

Then, sprinkle your dog with baking soda. Let him shake it off, you can gently blow in his ear to prompt the shake.

Finally, brush any remaining baking soda through his fur, working it's deodorizing power into his coat.
