SKIN - WIPE DOWNS

HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU WIPE YOUR BULLDOG DOWN, MAIINLY FACE AREA??

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY RECCOMENDATIONS FOR WHAT TO USR TO WIPE MY BULLDOG DOWN .. SHE TENDS TO BE A LITTLE MORE IRRATATED TOWARDS THE END OF THE DAY\ NIGHT, ESPECIALLY IN HER SKIN FOLDS. IS THERE A PRODUCT OR DO SIMPLE BABY WIPES OR WARM WATER DO THE TRICK?

Sometimes you can cause irritation by cleaning too often.

Sounds like she may just need a soft, dry cloth to keep things dry in her folds. I might also try a little gold bond non-medicated powder or some corn starch to keep her dry. I like Desitin, too. It helps soothe the folds.

Hydrogen Peroxide


Per Sisy's breeder's (he's also a vet) recommendation I use a cotton ball with hydrogen peroxide to cleam her face and wrinkles once a week. Sisy is 2 and hasn't had a skin isssue or any other health problem.
