A daily brushing removes dead hairs and stimulates the skin.

DOG SOAP, PLEASE

The use of human soap products like shampoo, bubble bath and hand soap can be damaging to a dog’s coat and skin. Human products are too strong; they remove the protective oils coating the dog’s hair and skin that make him water-resistant. Use only shampoo made especially for dogs. You may like to use a medicated shampoo, which will help to keep external parasites at bay.

EAR CLEANING

The ears should be kept clean and any excess hair inside the ear should be carefully plucked. Ears can be cleaned with a cotton ball and ear powder made especially for dogs, never probing into the ear canal. Be on the lookout for any signs of infection or ear-mite infestation. If your Chihuahua has been shaking his head or scratching at his ears frequently, this usually indicates a problem. If his ears have an unusual odor, this is a sure sign of mite infestation or infection, and a signal to have his ears checked by the veterinarian.
