My six month old staffie really pongs!

My pup really has bad body odour can anyone recommend anything to shift it or do you think she will outgrow it?
I feed her on Pedigree puppy food and dry biscuits.

hi i would suggest a change of food as pedigree is pretty awful to be feeding her. maybe try james well beloved or something along them lines i fed that to my pup when she was little the dry with a puppy pouch, i now raw feed.

Hiya from me and Vinnie,I too would suggest a change of food, you could try bathing the pup if you havent done so far

Hi & Welcome to the Forum from Flo and me

Echo the above advice, let us know how you get on

Hi and welcome from us and Suki

Hello from me and Maya. I feed Maya on James Well beloved, and at 4 months old she is looking fantastic with no odours at all.

Hi and welcome from ozzy and me I feed him in nature diet, no problems here

Thanks for all of your suggestions, I have bathed her numerous times but if anything she smells worse afterwards lol. I will try changing her food ( although I have never heard of James Well beloved ) I will google it to find out more and where I can purchase. Thanks everyone

Hello! Has she seen a vet? May be a yeast infection, or even mange. Over bathing will not help, and only make her feel uncomfortable. I would get her to the vet for skin scrapes. Also, agree that pedigree is the lowest of standards of ingredients. Wainwrights is a good option (you can buy from pets @ home) or James well beloved.

Welcome from me and mia i would change the food too, bathing your dog too often will make the dog lose their vital coat oils if you are at all overly concerned get the dog checked at the vet

hia from me and sasha

Nel as seen the vet and there's no infection/mange/fleas

Good news. If you change food do it slowly over a 5-7 day period or the gas may get worse

It's not gas she suffers from, it's her body odour lol

Aww bless her. Slowly change the food to a better quality one and let us know how you get on

Okay, though it's not normal for a pup to smell like that. Try the gradual food change, but if not I'd get a second opinion from another vet.
