The Importance of Choosing the Proper Shampoo for Your Pup:
You may be lured to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The challenge 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 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 about the idea that your dog is ikely to roll in the garbage, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy spots, and it soon becomes evident why you should have coat products that are developed to address these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't have the proper ingredients to de-scent, repair dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Fur Babies Wholesome Pet Food, we stock a range of dog grooming products that satisfy your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking fantastic.
Dog coats come in a variety of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's very important to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Some dogs grow compact undercoats while others have virtually no undercoat whatsoever. All coats require the best kind of brush to decrease pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin injury. Your dog may enjoy a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and require the lightest of touches.
