🐾 Why Regular Brushing Is SO Important for BOTH Long-Haired and Short-Haired Dogs! 🐾
At Bark Avenue Grooming & Co, we want every pup to feel their best — and brushing plays a huge role in that, no matter their coat type!
✨ Prevents Painful Matting (Long-Haired Dogs)
Long coats can tangle and mat easily. Mats pull on the skin and can hide irritation, hot spots, or infections. Regular brushing keeps your pup comfortable and mat-free!
✨ Keeps Skin & Coat Healthy (All Dogs!)
Brushing spreads natural oils through the coat, keeping it shiny, soft, and protected. It also boosts blood flow, supporting healthy skin and hair growth for every breed.
✨ 🐩 Reduces Shedding & Allergens 🐕 (Short-Haired Dogs Too!)
Short-haired dogs shed a lot too! Routine brushing removes loose hair before it ends up all over your home — and helps reduce allergens in the environment.
✨ Allows for Quick Health Checks
Brushing helps you spot lumps, bumps, fleas, ticks, or skin changes early. This is important for all coat types and can lead to faster treatment if something’s off.
✨ Strengthens Your Bond
Brushing is quality one-on-one time. It builds trust and strengthens your relationship with your pup — long-haired, short-haired, or anything in between.
💚 Bottom line: Brushing isn’t just for looks — it’s a vital part of your dog’s health, comfort, and happiness, no matter their coat length.
