AlwaysRunningL8: well,first....make sure he has gone to the vet for a check-up...you want that clean bill of health on him..second..what kind is it?? Some dogs just have that doggy odor,no matter what.I use a green tea shampoo that I get through a mail order catalog...you can go online <span>DrsFosterSmith.com   and they have wonderful things..I will not EVER use another shampoo on my dog..it not only smells wonderful but leaves his coat SOOOO soft..and as much as hug on my doggy..we need a soft coat,hehehe Good luck and keep us posted :)

anastasia: He is a mixed breed, part mini pinsher and part jack russell. He has a clean bill of health from the vet. The vet recommended a shampoo with a deodrant in it. But alas, after only a few hours he smells doggish again. And I so love him and want to keep him in my house, but this odor is overbearing. I will have to check out the website that you recommended. I love dogs so much! And love to hug them!

I had a boston terrier for 14 yrs and lost her last year. So I was quite excited to get a new doggy.

I will keep you informed and I will try green tea shampoo.

Thanks so much for your response.

AlwaysRunningL8: it could be his anal glands need clearing out?
takes seconds at the vets but stand well clear...
