For skin conditions to properly respond to therapy, you must correctly bathe your pet!
Brush and Comb out all mats before the bath.
Lubricate the eyes with eye ointment to prevent eye irritation from the soap.
Wet Thoroughly before applying soap. Use luke-warm water for your pet’s comfort.
Apply a small amount of the soap and Scrub in well with a soft brush or your fingers. Add more water, not more soap to get more lather. Medicated shampoos are very concentrated and will go a long way. A sponge can be used to wash the face. Using the fingers on the rest of the body is better than any brush for lathering and scrubbing the skin.
Allow the soap to stay on the pet’s body for 5 - 10 minutes. This step is very important.
Do not cheat!! Use a kitchen timer for the allotted time. It is very important the medication stay on the skin long enough to work!
After the allotted time, thoroughly rinse.
Repeat the soaping procedure if your pet is unusually dirtied.
