I have a Maltese rescued from the pound. He smells worse than any animal I have ever smelt, even half an hour after a bath with expensive specialist shampoo and conditioners. It has cost over a thousand dollars so far in trying lotions, changes of food, antibiotics, hypoallergenic diet, ripping out all the possibly toxic plants in the whole garden etc!! Still no better!!! We cannot pat him without running to wash our hands straight away. Horrible when visitors touch him and turn up their noses. Teeth and gums are great, ears no worries, full flea tick and worm treatments, but almost blind because each time the skin flares up, his eyes stop producing tears. No wonder he was sent to the pound. What else can I try?
