Do I need to clean where my dog sleeps?

Mange FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! Thorough cleaning of your pet's area is an important step to cure and control mange mites, and probably the most effective step you can take. The area needs to be wiped down with a hospital grade disinfectant, launder anything that your pet sleeps or lays on with Borax and dry on the highest heat setting for at least 20-30 minutes, vacuum all other areas and then throw away the vacuum bag every time, or use our DE (Diatomeaceous Earth) on places you're not able to wash.

How should I clean my dog?

Cycle Questions & Answers
In instances where you've been brushing, combing, and grooming regularly, but your dog has still picked up a little dirt, all you need to do is stand him in a plastic tub and rinse his legs and tummy off with just lukewarm water (don't use soap). If he's really been rolling in filth and is smelling particularly "doggy," then give in and give him a real bath. The water should be at about 95 degrees F (35 degrees C), and be sure to use only shampoo specially formulated for dogs.

In response to public concern and to reflect the trend amongst many responsible dog owners, the Council has now made it an offence under the Dogs (Fouling of Land) Act 1996 not to clear up IMMEDIATELY after your dog has fouled, unless you have a reasonable excuse. Dog fouling in public areas is anti-social. It is unpleasant to look at, smells and attracts flies. A survey by the Tidy Britain Group in 1995 found that 80% of adults think dog fouling in public places is offensive.

Dogs don't tend to "build up" semen and will retroejaculate into their bladder. There is, however, some discussion amongst Theriogenologists on this topic. We have collected many "virgin" dogs with excellent semen quality, but if we find the fresh sample to be less than desirable, we will ask you to bring the dog back in an hour and collect again, or schedule you for another appointment.

The shampoo doesn't lather much. Is it getting my dog clean?

Yes! The professional grooming shampoos we use are specifically formulated for dogs and cats. They are PH balanced for pet's skin (which is different from ours), deep clean without drying out the coat, are safe for puppies and kittens, and contain no harsh additives that build up. They do not lather like human shampoo, nor do they need to. Lather is nothing more than air bubbles, and bubbles don't get the dog clean..... the shampoo ingredients do. And, don't worry...

Special care must be taken with the socket until healing is complete. In the immediate time period after your surgery, the closed eyelid should be wiped gently with a cotton ball moistened with the sterile eye solution given to you when you are discharged; drops or ointment may also be prescribed. This helps to keep the socket free from infection. The healing process usually takes about two to four weeks. When you receive your ocular prosthesis, you may wash your face normally.
