Question
my roommates have an english bulldog thats about 6 months old and he has this HORRIBLE smell.  hes not rolling in anything to cause the smell cuz even right after he gets a bath he still smells bad.  he had mange, the one that starts with a d that he gets from his mother, and they took him and got it taken care of.  he had some breathing problem when they first got him (he was 13 weeks old, hes 23 weeks now) but i dont think hes on the meds anymore.  they feed him purina healthy morsals and every now and then he gets a rawhide bone.  he doesnt get a bath very often, maybe once every three weeks.  he lives in the house with everyone and my other two dogs, and i cant stand his smell!  i dont let him play with my dogs cuz he makes them smell too, which isnt fair but i dont want to have to give my yellow lab and beagle puppy a bath every other day!  are there any cheap fixes for him?  please help me i hate his smell!!!!

Answer
Hello - Tell your friend to put him on some Acidophilus 1 billion CFUs... Give just 1/2 per day for at least 30 days.
It should help to get rid of the possible yeast in his skin.
Also, a better food like Innova PUPPY or Wellness Puppy rather than the Junk Purina ...
