My JRT needs Deo!

I love my jack russel terrior to death! She is the sweetest dog we've ever had.. and even though a lot of people talk about how hyper they are, she is a great dog that loves to cuddle up to you.. sometimes it even looks like shes smiling lol. but enough about that

She loves to burrow under the covers in bed and sleep and I think she gets hot and sweats a little. We give her baths regularly, but she always ends up smelling like corn chips. Is there such thing as doggy deoderant or something that we could use to prevent this corn chip smell?

Corn chips! Exactly!! Is it all over or just paws?

We have broken coated JRT (longish, roughish...wild eyebrows and beard) and she gets feetsie! Like fritos.

She gets good low-grain dry food now. We brush her teeth and had a cleaning a month ago.

Her pads were dry and rough..she used to lick them a lot. Vet gave a spray for bacteria (I think) also a fish oil spray for her food.

Do a google search for dog feet corn chips...it'll show we're not alone.

Well I just found a ladys answer on another that her vet said it has something to do with the breed, what they eat and their sweat. But I am sure if I search enough I'll find many different reasons.

She does lick her pads a lot. They are also really dry. What does the spray do? It may just be from her paws.. im not sure.. I havent seen her in a few weeks to check it out since im at college lol

The spray was a cleanser/anti-bacterial and it helped a little. Her feet aren't as bad now, but she does get a bit pantsy after a few weeks. We don't want to bathe her too often, but when she gets ripe she needs it.

How's your cheese-puff? Do you have an update?

The bad breath could be caused by bad teeth. It sounds like the dog could do with a good dental exam, cleaning, extractions, etc. Which is important, because if the dog has bad breath from stinky stuff in his mouth, then when he grooms himself, he is spreading the stinky stuff onto his fur.
