Before you spend money on expensive dog cleaning products Watch how to make this easy DIY spray at home first. Take a clean bowl and add one cup of water. Water acts as the base of the mixture and helps dilute the other ingredients so that they spread evenly over the dog's coat. Next add two tablespoons of dish soap. Dish soap can help lift dirt, grease, and oily residue that may build up on your dog's fur after outdoor activities. Now pour in two tablespoons of white vinegar. White vinegar is commonly used in households for cleaning because it may help neutralize unpleasant odors and leave the coat feeling fresher. After that, add two tablespoons of baking soda. Baking soda is well known for its odor absorbing properties and may help remove unwanted smells while supporting the cleaning effect of the mixture. Stir everything thoroughly until all of the ingredients are completely combined. Once the mixture becomes smooth, pour it into a clean spray bottle. Now the homemade spray is ready to use. Lightly spray the mixture onto your dog's coat, avoiding the eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. Use a soft cloth or brush to spread the solution evenly over the fur. As you gently brush the coat, the dish soap helps loosen dirt and the white vinegar may help reduce odors, and the baking soda adds an extra cleaning boost. After a few minutes, wipe the coat with a damp cloth and allow it to dry naturally. Keep in mind that every dog has a different skin type, so always test the spray on a small area first. If your dog has sensitive skin or irritation, stop using the mixture and consult a veterinarian. Save this simple trick and try it whenever your dog's coat needs a quick refresh.
