Freyja is the shiniest dog I know! What an amazing coat 😍 she is jet black but I actually get bright white glare off her coat from the lights when I’m trying to clip her!! She’s amazing 💜🐾
Let’s talk brushing and matting 🐾🐶
By the time your next groom dates come round many of you will be thinking about stepping away from short summer clips and opting for a slightly longer length again. I have made a short video on the basics of how to brush correctly as this is important to avoid matting, even more so if your dog has a long or curly coat.
Keeping your dogs clean and dry after very dirty walks and simple line brushing with a slicker and comb every day can keep your dogs coat tangle free. Home maintenance of coats is important inbetween grooms as if the coat gets matted I have to shave UNDER the matting so this determines the length that the coat has to be, and it will be short!!
Matting starts to form at the skin and gets tighter over time and closer to the skin. If you bring a matted dog in for its groom then we can no longer keep the nice fluffy longer look and have no option but to shave. Matting restricts airflow, traps moisture, debris and bacteria and is painful and pulls on the skin, even causing bruising in severe cases, and can cause lots of other issues to the skin including sores and skin infections.
A slicker brush and a comb with daily brushing is all you need to maintain your dogs coat between regular grooms and stop matting from forming …. Plus it’s a great bonding time for you and your dog ☺️
Please always just ask when you are in if you have any questions on coat maintenance and together we can keep your dogs healthy and happy 💜🐾
