We got a Border Terrier 4 weeks ago, she stinks of dog. The day we picked her up they gave her a quick dip which wasn't really effective tbh.
I bathed her on christmas eve because she rolled and was filthy. She stinks already. We're not used to stinky dogs! Our other dog is s greyhound and he doesn't smell at all!
We hoover almost daily now, use Shake N Vac on every other hoovering job and we hoover both the dog beds thoroughly. The BT's bed has been washed a couple of times (GH's bed is a waterproof cushion that just has a brief hose off occasionally) but it takes a while to dry so I think I need to get her something with a removable cover.
How else can we control the smell other than frequent bathing? (Although the bathing idea is appealing to me, the dog shampoo smells of baby powder! It's lovely.)
