Cleaning of Daily Dog Supplies
Golden Retriever (Detailed Introduction)
Having a dog at home means you need to regularly perform disinfection tasks, which not only help keep your dog free from flea infestations but also maintain a clean home environment. Now, let the editor guide pet parents to see what disinfection precautions families with dogs should take.
1. Daily cleaning of dog cages
1. Always wear gloves
Wear gloves, take about a bottle cap of disinfectant, pour it into a basin, then dilute with water according to the instructions’ reference ratio.
2. Clean with a small brush
Use a small brush dipped in the diluted disinfectant to scrub the dog cage. The dog cage is made by welding horizontal and vertical bars in different directions, and the connection points of the bars are especially prone to accumulating dirt, especially the bottom mesh.
3. Rinse with clean water after scrubbing
After scrubbing, rinse thoroughly with clean water. It should be noted that dogs like to lick everywhere, and disinfectant residue on the bars can be mistakenly ingested by dogs, so be sure to rinse multiple times.
4. Remember to dry after washing
Then take the dog cage out to sunlight for 1 hour of exposure. Ultraviolet rays will double the sterilization effect!
2. Daily cleaning of food bowls
The food bowl that a Teddy dog uses every day must be a fixed bowl and avoid sharing among multiple dogs. Stainless steel is best, as it is sturdy and easy to clean. After each use, clean the leftover food scraps and the Teddy's saliva thoroughly with detergent, and soak in disinfectant weekly.
3. Grooming tools need cleaning
Grooming tools such as combs, scissors, and clippers are easily forgotten items. If they look clean on the surface, they are often neglected. Since they directly contact the dog's skin, after use, when touching other dogs’ skin, they can easily mechanically spread skin diseases.
