My dog is always cleaning himself, too. When he wants a kiss, I say, “ Not until you brush your teeth!”
Ibizan Hounds are cleaner than any cat you’d ever meet.
In the 25 years of owning them, I *never* had to bathe them.
No matter how much mud or snow they ran through, 5 minutes after they came back in, they were sparkling clean again.
Fussy, prissy, obsessively clean dogs.
They literally have no smell, at all.
Weird.

Our dog only cleaned certain parts of her anatomy with any reliably. :p
So do you brush his teeth? We never did, but a friend of mine had both doggy toothpaste and doggy mouthwash for her little guy. The mouthwash got used regularly; toothpaste, not so much.
