  Not Ranked. Helpful AND tactful post? : 0
Hello I have a dog and was in a DIY website. They said you could use baking soda dry and come it in. That it doesn't mask but neutralizes odors and aids in keeping fleas away too. Was just wondering in small doses if I could do this for my pigs safely too. They also said you can do it wet like a shampoo and then rinse it clean. I was hoping for the dry to be okay as it sounds great for in between bath times since I have long hair pigs. Just want to make sure it would be safe to do so first of course        |

No. Baking soda can irritate the eyes, damage the membranes of the nose, eyes and mouth and negatively impact taste and thirst. |
