Animals don’t shower daily to remove allergens and they
don’t wear protective clothing and shoes to keep allergens at
bay.
Environmental substances (ragweed, grass, pollen, mold)
animals pick up just by walking outside can even provide
enough irritating substances to cause a reaction.
The resulting allergic reaction is actually one reason why
elderly animals and those in poor health often exude an
unpleasant fragrance.
Common sense: Keep Skin Clean and Healthy
If you have a rash, scab, infection, or injury to your skin, you
don’t have much question about what to do -- you keep it
clean! The same is true for dogs and cats. Your animals will
feel better, smell better, and heal faster if their skin is kept
healthy and clean.
