One of the most worrying things about owning a dog is grooming. Although this is a small thing, many people don't notice it, and some people don't even groom their dogs for a long time. Today, the editor will give you some knowledge points you need to know about grooming dogs. Please save them quickly!
First, special tools should be used when combing hair. Do not use human combs and brushes. To use an iron comb, hold the back of the comb with your hand, swing it gently with your wrist, comb it horizontally, and use coarse, medium, and fine combs alternately. The usage of the comb is to use the strength of the wrist. The brush has many teeth. When combing, lift the hair with one hand, and then brush the other part.
Second, when combing, the movements should be gentle and meticulous, and should not be done roughly or recklessly, otherwise the dog will be in pain. Be especially careful when combing the coat near sensitive parts (such as external genitalia).
Third, pay attention to the dog’s skin. A clean pink color is good. If it appears red or has eczema, there are possibilities of parasites, skin diseases, allergies, etc. and should be treated in time.
Fourth, if fleas, lice and other parasites are found, they should be wiped with a fine wire brush or treated with insecticides in time.
Fifth: When the dog's coat is seriously stained, conditioner (1000 times diluted) and baby powder should be used together with combing.
Sixth: Before combing the coat, if you can wipe the dog's body with a towel soaked in hot water, the coat will be brighter.
