Why does my dog stink?

Dogs may stink for a variety of reasons. General cleanliness is one cause; the dog may simply need a bath. Certain illnesses and parasites can also cause a stink, your veterinarian can tell you more. A poor quality food can be difficult to digest and cause gas, but sometimes a dog simply stinks like a dog. What can you do?

We use and recommend a supplement of liquid chlorophyll. Liquid chlorophyll neutralizes body odors, aids in digestion, and is good for your dog’s heart. It naturally neutralizes stink from breath, odors that originate from the body or skin, and decreases the smell of dog poop. Chlorophyll is a naturally occurring substance that has been used in deodorants for people with allergies for years.

You may be able to find liquid chlorophyll at a local health food store, but generally the savings online are enough to cover shipping costs. We use and recommend the following brand. A 32oz bottle generally lasts us 6-8 weeks, but the smaller bottle would be last long enough for you to know if it was helping decrease you dog’s stink.
