This goes a long way in explaining not only bath temp, but how they are affected by temperature in general and why their skin can be more sensitive to some shampoos (along with PH). |
I never read this before, I knew that they were sensitive to heat, but didn't know why, this make sense. Whenever, I read about someone whose puppy cries during bath time, I always wonder if overly hot water is the problem.
