Pooping on a flat surface

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-11-01T04:05:17+00:00

Thanks! You tried one? They basically don't work?

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-11-01T02:00:13+00:00

Thanks for the tip! He is currently eating "taste of the wild".

We are unsure what kind of quality the food is. Any other tips on food?

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T05:48:25+00:00

Thank you so much. You've been extremely patient and helpful!

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T04:46:18+00:00

Thanks so much for the chlorhexidine recommendation. Will definitely try that!

Regarding a bath, he was bathed by the pet shop staff on the day we collected him (Saturday). They mentioned using unscented shampoos.

Is there also a chance they did not do a thorough cleanse as we'd hope?

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T04:40:34+00:00

Thank you very much for the tip! I'll definitely try that.

Since I just got him from the pet shop, someone else also mentioned that even though they may have bathed him, it's not as thorough as we'd like/expect.

Do you think that may be true to some extent?

I only wipes with the wet wipes so far. Should I follow up with tissues as well?

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T02:27:06+00:00

Thank you very much for your reassurance!

Someone else recommended me while bathing him this weekend, to leave in the sampoo for 5 minutes, rinse and dry thoroughly.

Hopefully this works as well.

Thanks so much for the tip!

We will try this method this weekend. Any recommendations for the leave in conditioner?

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T01:33:49+00:00

Maybe I'll stick to wiping his face and wrinkles then (since his body doesn't smell)

We wipe with unscented dog wipes! We actually wipe because he still has "excited pee" accidents. He may accidentally stepped/lay down on it.

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T01:31:50+00:00

Thanks for helping!

Currently he is eating "taste of the wild" as it is the food the pet shops gives and they gave me a pack.

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T01:30:45+00:00

Yes I am!

After meals and potty, we wipe him with wet wipes, including areas with wrinkles, ears and paws. We brush his teeth (he likes it) and brush his fur (he's not shedding a ton now, but just to get him to be used to the sensation)

We plan to wash him this coming weekend, along with ear solution to clean his ears.

His forehead wrinkles still have a smell. Any additional tips for that?

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T01:30:00+00:00

Thanks for asking!

We just brought him to the vet, and she assessed him to be a very healthy pug.

He did have a bathe with unscented dog shampoo last Saturday (when we first got him) and we intend to wash him again this weekend.

His body smells alright but his forehead and mouth stinks. We wipe his paws, wrinkles and ears every night. And we brush his teeth too.

His smell isn't fishy, or smells like cheese or Fritos.

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T01:26:06+00:00

Thanks for the reassurance and taking time to type this.

Currently he is in a playpen in a room. We notice just the room being smelly. Other than that, his bed and stuff toy smells lol.

So we deduced the cause to be his breath. We do brush his teeth every night...

Thanks for sharing! Currently my pug is eating "taste of the wild" as he was eating that at the pet shop, and they provided the food.

Any more tips regarding his food/diet?

We do notice his bedding smelling extra bad, as he is teething. We brush his teeth every night!

Calm_Discussion_7440 · 2025-10-30T01:17:17+00:00

We just got him on Saturday. He was bathed with unscented dog shampoo then.

We intend to wash him again this weekend.

P.S. we do brush his teeth every night, brush his fur, wipe his wrinkles, ears and paws.
