2. Grooming your dog will keep both their coat
and skin healthy. Also it is a good way to
bond with your dog. Regular grooming
stimulates the blood supply to the skin
which gives them a shinier coat.
Dogs vary widely in the amount of grooming
that their coat requires. All breeds require
daily grooming, how much depends on the
breed, age, or health of the pet.

3. REASONS TO GROOM
General cleanliness of the dog
Decreased chance of various health problems, such as thrush,
scratches, and other skin problems
Forging of a closer bond between dog and owner
Reducing infestation load of external parasites on skin
Monitoring of the dog's health by checking for cuts, heat, swelling
4. BRUSHING
Brushing your dog will help remove dead hair
and tangles. This can be done by using a slicker
brush all over its body and places where
knotting occurs frequently. Teaching your dog to
like brushing is important to make sure regular
grooming doesn’t become a battle.
Special attention should be given to tail and
feet while brushing. Common dog brushes are
the bristle brush, wire pin brush, and the slicker
brush.

5. BATHING
Moderate bathing like once in a month or four times a
year is considered best. Dogs can be bathed by being
sprayed with a hand-held shower head, or doused with
water from a bucket. Dogs with a heavy or matted coat
should be completely brushed out or clipped of any
mats before bathing.
Shampoos and conditioners formulated especially for
pets should be used as their skin has a different pH than
ours. A second bath is excellent to ensure the entire
body has been cleaned.

6. NAIL TRIMMING
Before starting nail trimming it is important
to make your dog as comfortable as possible.
All dogs need to have their nails clipped
before they overgrow, as walking will become
painful due to uncut nails.
Nail trimming is done with a nail clipper.
Guillotine clipper and the standard scissors
nail clipper are two main types of nail
clippers.

7. TEETH CLEANING
One of the first indicators that your dog’s teeth
need attention is that his breath smells bad. For
most dogs teeth are a neglected part of the body
and so it requires greater attention. It is
important to keep your dog’s teeth and gum in
good condition and two good ways to keep their
teeth clean are through brushing and chewing.
Dental scale and polish every 6 to 12 months is
key to free your dog’s teeth from any diseases.

8. EAR CLEANING
Ear cleaning can be a messy job but at the
very least you should take a look and a sniff
in your dog’s ears while grooming to detect
infections and mites.
Ear cleaner and cotton wool are mainly
required to clean your dog’s ears.
