Daily brushing helps prevent tangles and mats, improves blood circulation, and removes dirt. Use a slicker brush or comb suitable for your dog’s coat type to maintain a smooth, healthy coat.

Bath your dog using a mild, pet-safe shampoo. Avoid over-bathing as it can strip natural oils. Rinse thoroughly to prevent skin irritation and ensure the coat dries properly.

Use a detangling spray or conditioner on stubborn mats before brushing. Gently work through knots with your fingers or a comb to avoid pulling on the skin, which can be painful for your dog.

Trim excess hair around the paws, ears and sanitary areas to maintain hygiene. Use rounded-tip scissors or grooming clippers designed for pets to ensure safety during the process.

Check ears weekly for dirt, wax, or infection. Clean with a dog-friendly ear solution and cotton balls. Avoid inserting anything deep into the ear canal to prevent damage or discomfort.

Trim your dog’s nails regularly using pet nail clippers. Avoid cutting too close to the quick to prevent bleeding. Short nails help maintain paw health and proper walking posture.

Long-haired dogs can develop tear stains or hair irritation around the eyes. Use a damp cloth to gently clean the area daily and trim hair carefully if it obstructs vision.

After bathing, gently towel dry the coat and use a pet-safe blow dryer on a low heat setting. Ensure the hair is completely dry to prevent fungal infections or skin irritation.

Check paws for debris, cracked pads, or injuries. Clean between toes and apply a paw balm if necessary. Regular paw care ensures comfort and prevents infections.
