One thing you can do to help his coat is to bathe him every 1-2 weeks with Murphy's Oil Soap. Use your fingers and gently "scrub" him while he is soaped up. (Murphy's does not produce much lather so don't expect it.) The massaging will loosen dead hair and help it fall out. This stimulates new hair to grow. Murphy's has natural oils including coconut that help moisten the skin and keep it healthy.
Help, Please!

Glad that he is OK… and sorry for laughing... but you have to admit.... it is pretty amusing!!!!

It is. Now that the crisis is over, and I'm pretty sure he's gonna be okay (I'm not sure how much of the paint he actually ingested), I'm chuckling to myself over both his behavior…and mine!

At least he isn't green! Glad it all came off OK.

Would have been pretty funny if the paint was purple or bright green..gggg
-
What a trooper!!! At least he isn't pink
-
Pink basenji! funny…
Glad he is ok. -
Poor Magnum - Bet he learned his lesson and will steer clear of those particular paint smells now that he knows what the consequence will be. All I can think of is what a mess you dealt with. Poor you, gbroxon.

I am glad your dog is ok, funny as it must have been! I would have been paranoid about it being digested too, cause knowing Tosca she would have considered it to be a yummy snack!

And you'd win! This morning, Magnum followed me down to the laundry room where I had put some painted-up towels I used last night to get off a lot of the paint when it first happened. Luckily, I was able to grab them up just as he got into position to throw himself down and roll on them. (I trashed them after getting them as clean as I could.) He just loves rolling in stuff that's smelly, whether it's a good smell or a bad smell! He may have learned a lesson, but it's obviously not one that's gonna stop him from rolling in smelly stuff!
He seems to be okay even after getting several licks of paint in, no tummy problems, his usual laid-back self. Eating and drinking well.
