How long does drying take?
And another question is, how long does a dog stay smelling fresh after a professional bathing. I want to have some theoretical discussion about dog odor. I don't wash often: Dog gets a heavy oxidized greasy odor. I wash often: Dog stays wet too often and gets a slightly yeasty odor after a few days. I've been using a dehumidifier, regular hair dryer on warm setting and air mover after bathing but obviously it takes a full hour to dry my dog like this. He turns yeasty after a few days already and I don't really have time to wash more than once a month. I've figured that investing in a HV dog dryer is potentially my savior. He gets washed very thoroughly with a shampoo diffuser and multiple shampoo rounds + scrubbing. With or without conditioner doesn't appear to make a big difference. I'm clearly doing something wrong because it only takes a few days for my dog to obtain an odor again and I feel like that's not normal. Like I will pet his head and need to wash my hands after because a yeasty smell lingers on my fingers and I don't really want to touch things. My theory is this must be because he stays damp too long and I'm not using professional tools to dry him. But I really wanna know, how many minutes does it take to fully dry a large dutch shepherd dog with a medium length coat using a HV dog blower? And which one would you guys recommend? Do you members agree that the dampness could be the problem here?
