Dog Grooming Tips

It’s always important to be aware of a dog’s grooming needs as well as what they require to stay healthy when introducing them to a family. The amount of grooming care and attention a dog requires is entirely dependent on the breed.

Some breeds, for example, require daily brushing and general grooming, while others may only require it once a year or less. Breeds like Golden Retrievers, Newfoundlands, and Old English Sheepdogs would benefit greatly from daily brushing. There are mobile pet grooming Miami services for your convenience, so you don’t have to go to the grooming shop so often, they will come to you.

Non-Shedding dogs will, however, require regular grooming, as well as a professional grooming every six weeks or so. Non-shedding breeds will also require ear plucking to avoid infection and knots. This will be done every time they are taken to their dog groomer to be clipped. Bichon Frise, Shih Tzu, Maltese, and Yorkshire Terrier are examples of non-shedding dogs.

Short, smooth coated breeds such as Labradors are much easier to groom and more often than not all you require is a grooming mitt which are readily available at most pet stores. They, like all breeds still need to have their nails clipped to prevent them from over growing and again your nearest dog groomer will be more than happy to do this for you.

It is always a good idea to get any dog used to be groomed from a very early age. This will cause less stress for both owner and dog in the future and will help caring for your dog all the more easier.
