It sounds unbelievable, right? Every dog owner knows that our pets sometimes stink even if we take care of their body. Some breeds are stinkier than others by default, and there is nothing they can do to help it. No matter how frequently you wash them, they have a certain odor that won’t go away.

These tips will help you choose a dog that smells good if you are sensitive to smells.
