Reply #12: Depends a lot on diet, but...

90% of it depends on keeping the dog clean and bathing/grooming them regularly. Obviously if you have any dog and he's out running through mud and the woods and into the garbage he will smell.

I've worked with many dog breeds and personally don't believe any breed smells "less" or "more" than another. No matter what breed you get, the smell will be virtually exactly the same if he is bathed or groomed regularly.

I wish the best of luck to you, and I hope you'll consider adopting a dog instead of buying one! At petfinder.com or 1-800-save-a-pet.com you can even search for the breed you want if you do decide one fits your lifestyle better than another. And, even if there isn't one available that you think would work, keep checking back...more animals are available every day! :)
