Best Grooming Items
There are several types of items that will help you wash your furry companion at home. You will be able to avoid expensive visits to the dog grooming salon with these helpful tips.
• Brushes and combs: Untangling brushes, dead hair removal blades and undercoat rakes all help to remove and untangle hair, whether short or medium length. Steel needle brushes, on the other hand, are more suitable for dogs with a longer, thicker coat.
• Shampoo: Oat conditioner shampoos help soothe dry skin and irritation while removing dirt and sebum that causes discomfort. For more severe skin conditions, such as allergies or fleas, there are medicated shampoos.
• Claw cutters
: Heavier spring-loaded claw cutters such as those with guillotine blades or cutting pliers are more powerful and more precise. They are perfect for large dogs as well as those of average size. Lighter ones such as scissor clippers are more beneficial for small dogs. Purchasing a quality pair would be a wise investment. Keep coagulating powder on hand to stop bleeding if you cut too close to the root of the claw by accident.
• Grooming scissors : Grooming scissors are excellent for cutting and retouching. They are suitable for dogs that need to be cut regularly. In addition, they help keep the coat neat.
• Electric clippers : Electric clippers are excellent for both regular and occasional clipping. They offer an even cut. Electromagnetic and pivot motor mowers are better for shorter, lighter coats. On the other hand, rotary motor models are generally more powerful and more suitable for heavier coats.
• Ear Care Product: Although not often used, a quality ear cleaner can prevent irritation, infections and other ailments. This grooming step is very important for dogs with dangling ears. Soft cotton balls make it easy to clean your pet's ears before applying a cleaner or powder.
Dog Grooming Tips
• Elimination of dead hair: When grooming dogs that constantly lose their dead hair, use tools specifically designed for cleaning and removing undercoats such as blades.
• Hair cut : Not all dogs need to be cut, but many breeds (poodles, for example) will benefit from regular cuts.
• Treats: Keep treats handy during claw pruning or bathing. They will make grooming more enjoyable for you and your pet;
• Start at a young age: Begin grooming your dog at an early age to get used to the process. Many animals will appreciate the time of grooming, which will make the process easier.
Good grooming and proper techniques contribute to the happiness and health of your pet. Know what tools are right for your dog's special needs so that home grooming is easy and affordable.
