"My basset smells good! And stays clean and nice-smelling for days. This is the first shampoo that has worked. Even with expensive dog shampoos, he smells like a basset (which is not bad!) in two days. I was pleasantly surprised at how well Smelly Dog Baking Soda Dog Shampoo cleans and neutralize..."

"This does not work as marketed for our boy. it is great for the first day or two, but after that he smells worse than before the bath. As soon as the bath is over he starts scratching he does MUCH better with our other brands we use."

Bottom Line

Overall, this shampoo is a good choice for basset hound owners looking to keep their pets smelling fresh. However, customers should be aware of the potential for odor return and scratching issues. Those with sensitivities or allergies should consider other options. As it's a good product and the potential negative points don't seem to affect a majority of users so it's a recommendable product.
