Our canine friends aren’t as good as cats when it comes to grooming themselves. That’s why they could use a helping hand from you, their loving owner. But what exactly should your dog’s grooming routine look like?
Brush your dog on a daily or every-other-day basis. This removes grime from underneath the coat and spreads essential skin oils throughout the fur to keep it well-moisturized and minimize shedding. You’ll also want to bathe your dog every once in a while using a canine-formulated shampoo (never use shampoo for humans!). Just make sure not to bathe too frequently, as it can dry out the skin. Ask your vet for a recommendation on a great shampoo choice.
Don’t forget about clipping your dog’s nails. It’s an essential part of a good grooming regimen! Consult with your vets Salisbury, NC to learn more about the grooming needs of your dog. We’re always here to help!
