Should you wash your dog's paws after a walk: veterinarians tell
There is an opinion that a dog needs to wash its paws after every walk in the fresh air.
However, is this statement true or is it just a myth?
Canine experts have revealed that frequent washing of a four-legged friend after a walk is largely due to the fastidiousness of the owners.
As experts noted, this type of care for a pet is generally acceptable.
Things to remember
However, if your dog has been outdoors in warm, dry weather, his paws may not need washing.
When it comes to walking in winter, you should take care of your pet to wash off salt and reagents from its limbs.
Cynologists also emphasized that in the summer it is necessary to thoroughly comb the fur of your four-legged friend to detect ticks.
Most often, the areas most susceptible to attacks by parasitic insects, including ticks, are the dog's armpits, the area behind the ears, the neck and tail.
