As some of you know, my friend is dog sitting a pug... I was wondering if pugslee needs her skin folds to be clean, daily? How can we clean them? Thx, Richie

Not daily. You can use doggie wipes, just like the hand wipes but for dogs and dry well w/ a towel. Basically use your best judgement. Like if it is really hot or she rolls in the dirt or something, then yes clean her but if you check her and she doesn't have dirt in her folds and she isn't out in the hot for a long prd of time or long walk then you don't have to do it every day.
If you don't have the wipes you can put a very little bit of dog shampoo on a wet wash cloth and then use a clean wet one to wipr it off, and dry inbetween the fold very well. Kind of like asponge bath if you don't want to do a full bath.
Unless she gets very bad or the family told you that she has a special reason that she needs it she should be ok
