Here's my neosporin trick. Quickly without a fuss put it where needed, then make a HUGE show out of putting a little neo somewhere else that is easy for him to lick - I like to use the top of a front foot. I say things like "OH my goodness, look at this foot!!!! We are going to have to put this stuff right here on this foot. Whatever you do DON'T lick you foot" etc. I drag this out (time wise) with as little neosporin as possible but go on about how much this foot needs the neo. So, when the dog is released, he'll go lick his foot and forget about the owie place. It's sort of a game. Basenji thinks he got one up on you and you think you got one up on him. (Yea, I'm easily amused.)
4 mo old shedding

my puppy is shedding, and i was just wondering if that was normal…i had heard that puppy do not shed at all....and it's not real bad but if i pick him up i'll have lots of white hair on me. i live in las vegas nevada and it is starting to get pretty hot out here so could that be why?

He may be changing from puppy coat to adult coat. Puppy coat is soft and a little fuzzy, adult coat is smoother, and a little more coarse.

Dallas is shedding his pupy coat & he's just about 5 months old now. There is hair everywhere!!!! LOL

The only part that is true is "no" doggy odor…
