My 11 month old Black Mouth Southern Cur has a strong body odor. Will this product help reduce it?

I'm not positive about the body odor, but I understand all things in the body stem from the gut and this being a probiotic I would assume this product will not hurt. Good diet will help also.

Would be good if you could expand on what you mean by body odor. If the odor is a yeasty smell, then yes, this will help to some extent, but candida (yeast) is a much bigger issue than a probiotic can solve. Diet changes are important if that is the problem. I won't go into it here, no reason if that isn't your dog's problem. As far as just regular old 'dog smell', it has been my experience that a proper diet (raw or at least a high quality grain free) go a long way in eliminating that, too. Diet can also keep nasty dog breath to a minimum. I hope you get things figured out! Good luck!

If you are referring to a dog and the odor is from her fur, I don't believe this will help. This product is for intestinal flora problems and not for external fur problems. I would check with a vet or groomer about this.

I've used this product on my Sheltie that had a similar symptoms. It works great with a combination of medicated shampoo Chlorhexidine 2%. The key is bathing them 3-days in a row and allowing the solution or shampoo to stay on them for at least 10 to 15 minutes before you rinse. Keep in mind this is a concentrate. A small amount mixed into bath water or a small tub will go a long way. As always read the directions and if the symptoms persist after the third day consult your vet.

I don t felt any odor but when summer came the tape start loosing strength and the cool air started to get back in after all in December. But at least I didn t smell anything that bother me when I used. I try first in a few windows to checked.how its work. You can do the same and move your pet to another place. Thanks

I would check by having your dog sniff a citronella candle to see the reaction. This did not work with my Havanese because she enjoyed the smell! Still looking for a solution.

No I didn't notice any particular odour. Since raking the collar off my collie is 100% better.

It would be a good first step to try. I bought one collar at first to see if it would work, and then bought the 3 pack. The feliway defuser is also another option but the collar is cheaper and I think more effective in my experience. There are also other odorless options that you can spray in areas to discourage him as well if you would prefer trying those first.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that question. I would imagine that if your dog has bad breath due to dental issues or due to some other health problem; i.e., stomach issues, it might not be very effective. I just use it hoping that it will help keep my dogs' mouth in better health and have no way of knowing if it is helping or not. It's just part of his usual dental hygiene program. Good luck!

Helps but depends on how old the dog is and past dental hygiene. Our little dog has a poor history and was old when we got him and have had several teeth pulled the first time he went to the vet. Since using this daily his teeth has gotten better but still stinky. Our other dog whose younger has been great and doing better.

According to some of the other reviews YES! I would say if you see no improvement/worsening of the condition than contact your vet.

I had to stop the chicken meal one and switch back to the duck, turkey one. That will solve the gas problem. No one wants a stinky dog. The duck, turkey instinct cost a few dollars more, but I have to say the health benefits for your furkid will be worth it! Good luck!

I cannot guarantee it will help but I can say I have a similar shirt for my dog and it does help him. I would ask your dog's veterinarian or I have icluded the American Kennel Club contact page since it is their product. https://www.apps.akc.org/apps/contact/index.cfm. Hope this helps.

i don't know about that, because my application is just as an annual treatment. however, you can try various "natural odor eliminators", such as baking soda, borax,etc. just go online to research these applications. good luck!!!

i am not sure, but i suggest putting a few drops in a small spray bottle and see if spraying will eliminate the odor

I really doubt it would help. It's not a sedative but has natural ingredients that may calm them. I would ask your vet . . . :-)

Yes, this happened to one of my dogs. He developed extremely bad breath after I applied the product to him. I mean, my dog never has GOOD smelling breath, but it is usually a fishy smell. After applying the product, the smell of his breath was almost unbearable starting about an hour after application and clear into the next day. I can only describe it as a sort of skunky smell.

Hi Diane, my dog does that with me a few times a week. Sometimes I angle it a little bit. Sometimes I realize I'm smooshing his nose. This morning he pulled that breath holding jazz and I just rubbed his ears and distracted him. Then he finally took a breath. Good luck!

You probably could us it for that issue. We just use one of those Oxy cleaning solutions for pets so they lose interest in the spot they previously used. We've been using this so he stops chewing himself, so we don't know how well it would work on carpet or furniture.
