There are four different types of dog odors:
1. Foul Odors: These are the strong, unpleasant smells that can come from your dog’s skin, ears, or coat. They can be caused by infections, allergies, or other medical conditions.
2. Skunk Odors: If your dog has been sprayed by a skunk, he will have a very distinctive odor that can be hard to remove.
3. Urine Odors: Dogs often mark their territory with urine, which can leave an unpleasant smell in your home. Urine odors can also be caused by incontinence or urinary tract infections.
4. Body Odors: Dogs produce certain oils and sweat as humans do, which can cause body odor. This is often most noticeable during hot weather or after exercise.
