In houses where dogs live, a specific smell inherent to these animals is often felt.
Smell serves as a means of communication and transmission of important information for dogs.
And although there are no breeds that do not smell like doggy at all, there are dogs that emit a minimal odor.
And if we take into account the fact that the smell of an animal depends, among other things, on its health and the grooming of its fur, the answer to the question of what to do to prevent the house from smelling like a dog becomes obvious - it is enough to choose the right breed, observe hygiene rules and take care of the health of your pet.
This is enough to significantly reduce the intensity of the smell.
The key factor that influences a dog's odor is its coat type and undercoat. According to this criterion, experts distinguish the following categories of dogs with the least odor.
1. Long-haired breeds without undercoat - this feature prevents them from smelling like a dog. However, their long hair absorbs odors from the animal's surroundings, so they require careful care.
2. Breeds with medium-length hair and short hair without undercoat - an unpleasant odor is heard from them only when the dogs get wet.
3. Breeds with hard hair without undercoat, curly breeds have almost no smell.
4. And, of course, hairless dog breeds.
