This dog is really smelly. I think scrubbing him with steel wool will be more helpful
Sometimes there is no right thing to do with a dog.
The dog might be dead after the scrubbing. That's why I'm doing it on purpose.
Give him a proper bath using a scrub brush for bathing pets. What you suggest is just animal abuse.
Do you know how long the dog will take to get escape from the steel wool?
Just do not use steel wool and the dog will not need to escape. This really sounds like a dangerous thing to do to a dog. You are really going to mess up the dog's skin and could even cause it to have to go to a vet.
