Can any os you out there tell me why? Also inbetween the week she i spray a coat conditioner thats smells like apples. Obvoiusly not very long. I just don't understand what it is I am doing wrong. Do your babies get stinky quick. Any and all input will be sure appreciated.
Corky had never been stinky before but then the last three or so weeks he got really stinky. So stinky it was hard for me to be closed in an elevator with him. He gets bathed regularly too. On Yorkie talk someone suggested that he may have developed a yeast infection. It is true that his skin under his coat felt oilier than usual. I gave him a good bath with medicated shampoo and then sniffed. HE STUNK. Straight after a bath with shampoo etc.

So I went back to advice I had previously heard and mixed a small amount of pure tea tree oil in with his shampoo (prior to his bath). I shampooed him with the mix, left the suds on for 15 minutes and rinsed. And....Voila, bad stink was gone. It works like a charm. His itching is also almost completely gone as well and we have only had two baths in 5 days. Good luck whatever you try. Your Yorkie should not smell.
