Why does my Yorkie smell musky so quickly after baths or grooming?

Question

My Yorkie has a musky odor almost all the time. She usually starts to smell a few days after grooming or a bath. Please help. Pet's info: Dog | Yorkshire Terrier | Female | 5 lbs

Bas skin odor is usually due to a skin condition, most likely an allergy. In some cases it could be related to the food, in others it's something entirely different. I would recommend taking Addie to the vet in order to have the skin checked and if needed treated with allergy meds.
