wet dog smell
Soggy pup stench
The distinctive musty odor produced when a dog's fur gets wet.
The smell comes from bacteria and yeast on the skin releasing volatile compounds when activated by moisture.
It lingers on furniture, carpets, and anywhere a damp dog has been: The whole car had that wet dog smell after we picked him up from the lake.
