Hi all. I’m adopting a dog that’s being transported from the south US and will take two days to arrive. The rescue informed me that while they have planned potty breaks and runs and such, it is not uncommon that poop or urine still gets stepped on/in so the pup will likely arrive smelling pretty badly and that they’ll need a bath when I pick them up. Additionally, they’re some shepherd mix. In the video the rescue took, it definitely looked like he could use a good brush, but during the video call with the foster, it looked like he had a good brush. I would take the pup-o to a groomer, but he’ll have been traveling for 2 days, then have to travel a bit more with me to make it home, so I don’t want to subject him to that when he should be decompressing.
I was wondering if a clarifying shampoo, then a de-shedding shampoo and conditioner would be okay? If not, what’s your recommendation?
