🌊🐾 Dealing with Sand and Salt: Washing Your Dog After a Trip to the Beach 🐾🌊
Did your pup just enjoy a fun day at the beach? While they may love the sun, sand, and surf, it’s important to give them a proper post-beach groom! Here’s how you can keep their coat healthy and fresh after seaside adventures:
1. Rinse Away Salt & Sand: Always start with a thorough rinse to remove saltwater and sand from their coat, which can cause dryness and irritation.
2. Condition Those Paws: Sand and salt can dry out their paw pads. A gentle wash and some paw balm will keep them soft and crack-free.
3. Brush Out Tangles: After rinsing, use a brush to get rid of tangles or mats. Beach outings can lead to knots, especially in long-haired breeds.
4. Check Ears: Saltwater and sand can cause ear infections. Make sure to dry their ears thoroughly and give them a gentle clean.
Don’t let beach day leave your pup with itchy skin or matted fur—treat them to a relaxing post-beach groom! 🌞🐕💦
