I throw a clean towel in the dryer to heat it up when I am washing him.
After he is throughly rinsed of the shampoo, I put on the conditioner. If it is really really cold and he is shivering, I take warm towel out of dryer, and wrap him in towel and hold him for the 2 to 3 minutes for the conditioner.
Then I add another clean towel to the dryer. Heat that towel up rinse conditioner off and place new clean warm towel around him. Done!
If your puppy is very young forego a cool rinse just use lukewarm water.
I blowdry immediately after bath.
Hope that clarifies for you and gives you some suggestions |
Thank you very very much for the excellent suggestions. I can't believe it is so simple. Never thought I can wrap him in warm towel during conditioning so he never has enough time with conditioning because he shivers and I can't bear to see him cold. Now I know what to do. To answer your question about age, he just turned one years old last week. I used to wash him every 5 days but changed to every 7 days because he was starting to have dandruff problem. I added fish oil to his diet and oatmeal shampoo and he's good now. Just read about not rinsing enough also causes that so I will be careful in the future. Again, thank you very much. Much appreciated!!!
