The Importance of Picking the Best Shampoo for Your Dog:
You could be enticed to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The problem is, human-grade shampoo isn't created for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have unique hair and skin needs that call for shampoos and conditioners with certain formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or maybe dry coat cleansers for the times when you can't give your dog a complete bath.
Think of the idea that your dog is ikely to roll in the garbage, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy spots, and it soon becomes obvious why you need coat products that are manufactured to take on these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't consist of the proper ingredients to de-scent, repair dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Hydrant Pet Center, we offer a variety of dog grooming products that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking great.
Dog coats come in a variety of textures with hair follicles differing from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's vital to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow compact undercoats while others have nearly no undercoat whatsoever. All coats need the correct type of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin damage. Your dog may appreciate a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and need the lightest of touches. If you're not exactly sure of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our professionals at Hydrant Pet Center in Highland. Drop in or give us a call at (219) 923-3649 to discuss the kind of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the most effective for your dog.
