It could be yeast or it could be that the food she is eating is not agreeing with her. Usually it's the food....What are you feeding her?

 

[Izzy's Mom]

what are you using to clean her wrinkles?

 

[Bellababy1]

I feed her eukanuba puppy choir, and I use unscented baby wipes then dry it with a towel.

I totally agree... Grain free is the way to go. Speaking from experience. You should see a difference in a short time once you switch.

I suggest you check the food ratings in this link

and switch her food to something grain-free.

Also Desitin is very good on wrinkles after cleaning.

Yep probably a combo of the food and a yeast build up. Check out the great bulldog products forum here for good stuff to care for wrinkles. I am not on my pc so I can't link to it. The food you are feeding needs to be changed to something better as well. Bulldogs should not smell of fish and corn chips, usually this is due to food, shampoos and allergies.

That depends on the dog, what's available in your area and personal preference. Fromms is very popular on this board but it's not available in my area. I use Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream. I had a real allergic girl and that was the only thing that worked for her. My other dogs do well on it too so I figure if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

How strange; I noticed this on my own pup yesterday; I thought he was eating his own poop or something!! Will take these suggestions as well ; thanks.

We've experienced the same problem with our pup! His face is stiiiiinky! He's on Fromm Beef Frittata which from what I've read is really good (and grain free). His eyes water every day so everyday I wipe them down. Could it be the Fromm??

I am thinking what I'm smelling is my dog's breath!!!! Greenies has been helping a lot.

[MENTION=6280]ModernFemme[/MENTION] be careful with Greenies- they have a lot of calories and if you're feeding daily you might notice a big weight gain

Thanks for the heads up - they totally don't put calories on dog packages! We've been feeding lots of treats for training purposes and have been cutting down his food a bit to compensate. (Plus walks twice a day) Think feeding greenies twice a month is safe?

I read that Greenies arent a good idea with bullies - people put Greenies in the same category as Raw Hide. I'm not sure of the facts, I just remember reading it (here?) maybe others can jog my memory
