[nagdu] Stinky dog

[Darla Rogers]

Hmm, Brandy; I'm still inclined to think it may be a skin condition rather than food, though it is true, some dogs do have more of an odor; I had such a dog, and nothing really worked, but I certainly empathize in your situation.
	What kind of dog is she?  I personally like the products from Tropiclean which can be ordered on line or purchased at Petco, for sure, and PetSmart I believe; they are water-based so don't leave a residue but makes the coat soft and deodorized.  I only spray once a week, and I believe there are deodorizers that do just that with no coat conditioner.

Subject: [nagdu] Stinky dog

Good evening all,
So my dog has been particularly stinky since I got her. She got a bath when I got her in August. I had to give her another one two weeks after we got home. She smelled like she had been in a kennel for months without grooming, when in reality she had been with me and brushed every other day. Two weeks after that she was stinky again. Meanwhile, we had been to the vet and she had a paw and ear yeast infection. No scratching chewing or anything. She was put on anti fungal. No bath and no smell for a month. A two weeks after the anti fungal the smell is back. When I bathe her I get hand fulls of stinky under coat. It smells like rancid corn chips. Took her to the vet yesterday and he found no yeast. The vet at the school said some dogs just have more of an odor. She is eating taste of the wild pacific stream. I was also giving her allergy three fish oil supplements. Some people have said their dog smells fishy from eating fish based food so I stopped the allergy three. The vet also said I may just have to give her a weekly bath with the medicated shampoo. Does anyone else seem to have this issue? And has anyone found a decent waterless shampoo or deodorizing something or rather... The huge issue here is that I am a massage therapist, stuck in a tiny not ventilated room and can't have a even slightly stinky dog let alone a rancid corn chip smelling dog. Sorry pinta I still love you... 
Thanks for any advice.
