Quick answer: After a dusty roll, brush first, then check belly, armpits, ears, collar area, paws, and skin folds. Repeated licking, raw skin, odor, swelling, or severe itching should go to your veterinarian.
Dust looks harmless until it settles into the places people forget to check. A dirty topcoat is easy to see. Dirt under collars, inside folds, and between toes is what gets missed.
Brush before bath time
Remove loose dirt first so you can see the skin and coat clearly. Bathing over hidden grit can leave the real issue behind.
Dust and moisture can hide where air does not move well.
Friction plus dirt can create irritation.
Repeated licking after dust exposure is information.
