What should I do if my Pug has body odor? Eating too much food that is heavy in oil and salt will make the Pug's body odor worse, so you should pay attention to a light diet; regularly bathe your Pug with a pet-specific shower gel to prevent skin odor; Regularly cleaning the Pug's ears and squeezing and cleaning the anal glands can also remove body odor to a certain extent.

1. Light diet

If the Pug is fed greasy food, such as canned food, human meat, etc., for a long time without the supplement of fruits and vegetables, the body odor emitted by the Pug will become very heavy. Body odor and bad breath may also occur at the same time, which is even more uncomfortable. It is better to replace greasy food with a healthy diet, such as feeding ecological dog food. You also need to add more water, feed fruits, and wrap vegetables and meat together to feed your dog. Keep it light and low in salt, and avoid adding human condiments. When the food is healthy, the body odor will naturally be lighter and there will be no bad breath.

2. Bath regularly

Sometimes skin diseases can also cause bad odor in Pug dogs. Pug dogs should be bathed regularly with special pet shower gel, about once a week in summer, once every two weeks in spring and autumn, and once a month in winter. And it should be noted that long-term consumption of food with too much salt will cause skin diseases. Usually, dogs should be fed low-fat and low-salt dog food.

3. Clean the ears

Secondly, you should clean the Pug’s ears regularly in life. Dog earwax also forms very quickly, and is mainly white, light yellow, or yellow in color, and its shape ranges from powdery, lumpy, to mushy. Generally speaking, this is normal. However, the owner must remove this earwax in time. If it is not cleaned for a long time, it will easily breed ear mites. In severe cases, it will induce ear diseases and cause the dog to have a strong body odor.

4. Squeeze the anal glands

The odor of Pug dogs mainly comes from the glands growing on both sides of the anus. Since Pug dogs live at home for a long time, due to insufficient exercise and weak leg muscle strength, they cannot push excess anal gland fluid out. , causing the anal glands to accumulate and become blocked and swollen. At this time, the anal glands will produce a bad taste. Therefore, owners should regularly express the anal glands of their dogs to keep the anus free of too much odor.
