Brushing is the first step in pet grooming. It is best to use stainless steel and a softer needle comb. The advantage of brushing the bristles with a needle is that it is not easy to break the bristles. The purpose is to brush away the dead hair and hair knots on the puppy. The method is to start from the feet and work from top to bottom. And be sure to comb the hair backwards, and then comb the hairs smoothly. Because this can untie most of the knots.
The combing tool is a steel comb, also called a beauty comb, a steel row comb. This comb is characterized by being divided into wide and narrow sides. The purpose is to comb the small hairs that cannot be combed by the needle comb. If the fur on the dog’s body is not thoroughly combed before the bath, it will be more difficult to comb after the bath. First use a comb with sparse teeth, which can be more in-depth solution. But you need to use a little bit of force. If the force is stronger, it will break the hair easily. After combing, comb straight with narrow teeth.
After finishing some of the previous preparations, you can bathe the dog. The bathing cycle can be determined according to the type of dog and the length of hair. Generally speaking, long-haired dogs usually take a bath once a week. For short-haired dogs, it is more appropriate to take a bath every half a month. When bathing your dog, you must pay attention to the control of the water temperature. The water temperature is generally controlled between 35-45 degrees. Prevent water from entering the dog’s ears when taking a bath, otherwise it will cause ear diseases.
