The Importance of Choosing the Right Shampoo for Your Dog:
You might be lured to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The problem is, human-grade shampoo isn't formulated for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have special hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with distinct formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or perhaps 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, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy patches, and it soon becomes obvious why you need coat products that are created to deal with these challenges. Human-grade shampoo won't include the proper ingredients to de-scent, repair dryness, or deal with unwanted hitchhikers. At The Fetching Dog, we stock a range of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking great.
Dog coats come in a range of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's important to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow dense undercoats while others have practically no undercoat at all. All coats require the right kind of brush to decrease pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. 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 uncertain of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our experts at The Fetching Dog in Scottsdale. Stop in or give us a call at (480) 391-3647 to discuss the type of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the very best for your dog.
