Murphy has had this smell on his back for the past 3 weeks.
It is truly an indescribable smell.
I thought it might be his anal glands but it's not.
Washed him, it went away and then it would come back.
We took him to play today and one of the dog trainers smelled and said it could be yeast.
( I've heard people say yeast smells of Fritos-but that isn't what this smells like)
Burnt hair-musky/ that is the answer from my husband.
Maybe idk
I would bathe him and rinse and rinse to make sure no more soap was on him but he would still get dandruff two days later.
I have him on an oatmeal shampoo from the pharmacy.
She recommended the sulfodene shampoo/conditioner because it could possibly be yeast.
Going to try this and see what happens.
His belly isn't irritated or red
His paws are perfectly fine
Just his back, from his neck almost to him tail.
Has anyone used this before??
I really hope this works, not sure what the culprit is, if it actually is yeast.
Too much moisture from not getting dry enough, food etx
I will definitely be making a vet trip if it doesn't clear up.
And the area isn't inflamed at all. Just smelly lol
I really don't want to have to put him through changing his food.
I mean he wouldn't mind, he will eat anything!!!
