Dog Grooming Tips How to keep your dog clean and healthy is the most important thing you should know once you have decided to own one. The following are some tips you need to remember: Dog grooming, a vital aspect in dog care, is not limited to bathing. Like humans, dogs need to be cleaned thoroughly. Check your dog's ear at least once a week. There is no tool required for inspection but for cleaning, cotton damped with warm water is enough. Dog's nails should be cut every 2 or 3 weeks. Scissors style nail clipper or the guillotine style clipper will do the job but be careful on using it. There are different sizes available if you are going to purchase any of the two to fit your dog's toenail size. Bathing equipment Dog grooming tool should not be limited to combs brushes and trimming tools, it must also include bathing equipment too. There are several types of bathing equipment today but the most important things you must have are shampoo, conditioners, blowers or dyers, and showers. Special blowers or dryers and showers for dogs may not be important anymore if you already have these things at home. Composition Ideally, the dog grooming mobile trailer should be made from aluminum and/or stainless steel. Both can be easily cleaned. Add-on equipment provisions There are several equipment you may need to add. Some of which may not be installed if the trailer is not made to accommodate them. So make sure that your trailer has space to accommodate additional installation. The nails should be trimmed frequently for the comfort of your dogs. The third thing that you have to consider is the ears. Make sure to keep your pet's ears clean all the time. A dog with unclean ears is sure to suffer from ear infection. This condition is very painful for your dogs, and worst it can lead to total hearing loss. You would not to be caught dead walking a stinking and ugly looking dog, would you? Besides, you probably are one of those who like to cuddle and sleep with your pet. Imagine having to endure the odor and stink day in and day out. Dog grooming tend to be very expensive though. This may be why a lot of people are neglecting their pets because they do not have the required budget set aside for that purpose.
