What will happen if the dog is not dried after bathing?

Bathing a dog without drying it is likely to cause the dog to catch cold and become sick, especially for dogs with weak constitutions, which can cause many diseases. If the dog is exposed to moisture for a long time, it can also cause eczema. After bathing your dog, you should wipe it dry with a towel in time, and then use a hair dryer to completely dry the hair on your body so that your dog will not catch cold.
Notes on bathing dogs:

1. Bath your dog in a warm environment in winter. You can choose a sunny day, under the sun. Give your dog a bath to prevent him from getting cold.
2. You cannot use human shower gel on your dog. You need to use pet bath products to bathe your dog so as not to irritate its skin.
3. Do not bathe your dog frequently to avoid damaging its skin. Just bathe once every 1-2 weeks.
