Wash your dog Photo: Thinkstock

Makes 1 treatment

When your dog rolls in something foul-smelling – as they often do – confine it outdoors and run to the bathroom supply cabinet for help.

Ingredients for deodorising dog wash

1 large tube traditionalformula white toothpaste (coloured or gel pastes can discolour fur)
dog shampoo
1⁄4 cup (60 ml) cider vinegar

Preparation method for deodorising

1 Work the toothpaste into the dog’s fur from head to tail, nose to toe. Allow the toothpaste to air-dry for 20 minutes.

2 Wet the dog and apply dog shampoo, working up a full lather.

3 In a large bucket, combine the vinegar with 4 litres of warm water. Rinse the dog with this solution (double it for a big dog) and dry as usual.

4 Repeat treatment as needed.
