| My Puppies Head Stnks I JUST gave Sophie a bath last night and her head smells like dirty feet. I know there is another post about Yorkies Smell, but everyone seemed to think they don't, but I know I can give Sophie a bath and it seems like the next day her head stinks, not her body. Help???? |

| Maybe try a babywipe on her. There's also doggy body spray. Maybe spray some of that in your hands and wipe it through her hair.

| Does it stink from when she eats, and are you sure it isn't her ears? Jake gets food and water on his face and it's sometimes stinky, so I use a warm wash cloth and wash his face in the morning and at night. That helps alot. |

| It could be from the secretions in her eyes. If Sophie's hair is getting in her eyes and causing her eyes to water more then the hair under her eyes may smell like dirty feet or cheese. Pull her hair up in a top knot or try to keep it out of her eyes and then irrigate her eyes with an eye solution that you can purchase in Petsmart or Petco. If you do this every day you'll see a huge improvement. Good luck! One of my dogs had this problem and we thought it was his ears but the vet checked him and said it's from the eyes. Some people say to give distilled water to drink and this will help. My dogs have only ever had bottled water, though not distilled, and one still had the problem, but now it's much better.
