Dogs who smell the least: Breeds that are known to have little odor

While all dogs have some degree of odor, some breeds are known to have a relatively mild and less noticeable smell compared to others. 

Factors such as grooming, skin and coat type, and overall cleanliness can also affect a dog's odor. 

Some dog breeds that are generally believed to smell the least include these.

Basenji

This ancient African breed is often referred to as the "barkless dog" and has very little odor due to its short coat and clean nature.

Bichon Frise

The Bichon Frise has a hypoallergenic coat that doesn't shed much and is less likely to emit strong odors.

Maltese

The Maltese has a long, silky coat that doesn't trap odors as much as other breeds, and their clean habits contribute to their relatively low smell.

Dachshund

The Dachshund has a short coat and is not prone to producing strong odors, especially with regular grooming.

Poodle

Both standard and miniature Poodles have hair rather than fur, which means they shed less and produce fewer odors.

Havanese

This breed has a non-shedding, hypoallergenic coat that helps reduce the presence of doggy odor.

Whippet

With their short coat and clean nature, Whippets tend to be less smelly compared to some other breeds.
