When produced in excess, sebum has the potential not only to<strong>\u00a0make the skin look greasy but to also cause unpleasant odors<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Certain breeds of dog are more prone to this than others<\/strong>, such as Cocker Spaniels, German Shepherds, Basset Hounds and Dobermans.<\/p>\n<p>Our\u00a0<strong>ferret friends<\/strong>\u00a0have the unfortunate reputation of giving off a\u00a0<strong>strong musky smell<\/strong>.\u00a0<strong>This problem comes from both their skin and anal glands<\/strong>, a worry especially present in uncastrated males.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-advice-inside-content\">\n<h2>Against bad odors, there are solutions!<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Trying to mask any unpleasant odor<\/strong>\u00a0from your animal\u00a0<strong>with something sweet-smelling is completely pointless<\/strong>. Firstly, it would be uncomfortable for your pet, and secondly it won\u2019t address the source of the issue.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, there are natural substances such as\u00a0<strong>essential oils<\/strong>\u00a0which, when used properly, can help regulate the activity of overly active sebaceous glands and correct imbalances of the microbiota.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, let\u2019s not forget the power of\u00a0<strong>prebiotics<\/strong>! These nutrients may help stimulate the growth of the \u2018good\u2019 kind of bacteria and help strengthen skin\u2019s own natural defenses.<br \/>\nAnd of course, it is always advisable to consult with your local veterinarian, since the offending odor could be a sign of another condition, such as skin infection, hormonal disorder, etc.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"titre-selection\">DERMOSCENT<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Selection<\/div>\n<div class=\"woocommerce columns-3 \"><ul class=\"products columns-3\">\n<li class=\"product type-product post-48615 status-publish first instock product_cat-cat product_cat-dog product_cat-small-mammals has-post-thumbnail taxable shipping-taxable purchasable product-type-variable has-default-attributes\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/en\/product\/essential-6-spot-on\/\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px-300x300.png\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_thumbnail size-woocommerce_thumbnail\" alt=\"Soin hydratant\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Essential-6-spot-on_1080x1080px.png 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-xooWscFly=\"fly\" \/><h2 class=\"woocommerce-loop-product__title\">Essential 6<sup>&reg;<\/sup> spot-on<\/h2><div class=\"product-claim\" style=\"margin:5px 0; font-weight:500;\">Hydrating regulating spot-on<\/div><div class=\"star-rating\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Rated 5.00 out of 5\"><span style=\"width:100%\">Rated <strong class=\"rating\">5.00<\/strong> out of 5<\/span><\/div>\n\t<span class=\"price\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi>21,95&nbsp;<span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&euro;<\/span><\/bdi><\/span> <\/span>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/dermoscent.com\/en\/product\/essential-6-spot-on\/\" aria-describedby=\"woocommerce_loop_add_to_cart_link_describedby_48615\" data-quantity=\"1\" class=\"button product_type_variable add_to_cart_button\" data-product_id=\"48615\" data-product_sku=\"\" aria-label=\"Select options for &ldquo;Essential 6\u00ae spot-on&rdquo;\" rel=\"nofollow\">Add to cart<\/a>\t<span id=\"woocommerce_loop_add_to_cart_link_describedby_48615\" class=\"screen-reader-text\">\n\t\tThis product has multiple variants.
