1. Misunderstood "Dirty Kids": Three Truths About Pet Cleaning
Truth 1: Pet cleaning requires targeted treatment
Most pets, including dogs, have skin with a neutral or slightly alkaline pH level, which differs significantly from humans. Never share human shampoo with them but use professional pet cleaners. While cats have spines on their tongues, and they can clean about 30% of the surface dirt when combing their hair, it is clearly not enough, as the microorganisms hidden deep in their hair follicles still require professional care.
Truth 2: About 70% of pet illnesses are caused by improper hygiene management
Many common diseases often hide dirt that has not been cleaned up in a timely manner. Mites often develop due to earwax buildup, and damp foot hair can easily lead to interdigital inflammation. Improper cleaning of the urethral opening can easily cause urinary tract infections.
Truth 3: Protecting pet hygiene is also protecting family's health
Cleaning pets is not only about maintaining their own health, but also closely related to the health of their owners' families. Staphylococcus and Malassezia bacteria carried on the surface of pets may cause allergies in their owners, not to mention the physical and mental damage caused by unclean environments.
2. Scientific Care for a Harmonious, Clean Coexistence
