Even if you know how crucial brushing is for your Dog's health and well-being, we all know that there is a right way and a wrong way of doing anything. And without doubt, you would like to do everything the RIGHT way when it comes to your Dog.
Yes, there's a method to follow while brushing your Dog. Here are FIVE steps to successfully brushing your Dog that will prove to be extremely useful:
Brush against the growth of the hair first with a slicker brush and then with a medium or wide-toothed comb. The slicker brush removes all the loose hair and the comb takes care of the tangles. Brush your Dog along the hair growth and make sure you reach the skin as you brush his way. Then use a flea comb over the coat to get the fleas and remove any remaining tangles. Part the coat and start from the root and then comb through. If your Dog's paw pads are hairy, then clip them using electric clippers. Do not clip the hair in between the pads. Clip only the excess hair.
Regular brushing untangles the matted hairs on your Dog's coat. Since this is a risky job to do, the best way out is to prevent them from forming in the first place. And doing this is simple: just brush and comb your Dog regularly. If and when you see any mats or tangles, use a detangle solution and a medium-toothed comb. Don't wait until your Dog is dirty or matted to introduce him to grooming. That would make him associate the experience with unpleasantness. Moreover, many dogs learn to see their routine brushing as an alternate form of petting, i.e. another source of affection and attention.
