What You Need To Know About Grooming Your Own Dog
If you acquire a small puppy that will need quite a bit of grooming,
you can consider buying the basics professional dog grooming
supplies to be able to do it yourself at home. This can be a little
more expensive at the beginning because you need quite a bit of
professional dog grooming supplies, but it is a one shot spending
mostly. If you count how much it would cost you to go to the
groomer with your dog a few times a year for lets say 10-12 years...
it quickly adds up!
Here is a list of grooming supplies you might need to do your own
dog grooming at home. Of course, the tools needed will vary with
the breed of dog you own.
Professional dog grooming supplies #1 : Pet nail clipper (small and
large) Pet nail clippers comes in various sizes s you have to buy one
that will suits your dog breed.
Professional dog grooming supplies #2 : Scissors
Scissors will be useful if your dog has long hair. No need to buy that
if you own a Boxer! (but hey..you are clever enough to know that I think!).
Professional dog grooming supplies #3 : Clipper
Same thing goes for the clipper. If you have a dog that needs to be
shaved, it is a very good tool to have. And it is better not to use
the same one you use to shave people heads in your family!
Professional dog grooming supplies #4 : dental brush (finger or brush)
with toothpaste. Your dog teeth's are extremely important. If you
don't take good care of them, as your dog gets older, they will
have a hard time to eat properly. So, to avoid that, make sure
you brush your dog's teeth every once in a while. If you have a
small dog, there is a neat little thing you can buy : It is a toothbrush
you put on your fingertip. Very easy to use.
Remember to combine the brushing with dental bones now and then,
and also let your dog play with a good quality rope.
It will act like dental floss!
Professional dog grooming supplies #5 : Perfume
Ok this is not a vital professional dog grooming supplies! But it is nice
to have a good smelling dog don't you think? Just make sure you buy
appropriate dog perfume. Don't try your own Coco Channel on
your pooch please!
Professional dog grooming supplies #6 : Brush, comb Zoom Groom
Brushes and combs are important tools that you need to use daily,
so it is one of the most essential tool. I also like the Zoom Groom.
It is made of rubber, and it brushes the coat and gives a massage to
your dog at the same time. Excellent for dogs like Golden Retrievers,
for example.
Professional dog grooming supplies #7 : Shampoo and conditioners
A lot of people think they can use their own shampoo and conditioner
to wash their dog. That is a big mistake. Dogs have a sensitive skin
and it is essential to use appropriate shampoo to clean them. Also
make sure you don't give them a bath too often.
Professional dog grooming supplies #8 : Treats
This helps a lot keeping the dog calm during the whole process!
Professional dog grooming supplies #9 : Grooming table
This might not be necessary if your dog only need a little brushing.
But if you need to actually cut your dog's hair, I recommend using
a table. You will have you dog at the right height to work on it, and
it will not be able to move. A lot safer for both of you!
Professional dog grooming supplies #10 : Dog bows and bandanas
For small breeds, little decorative bows are often used once the
dog is groomed. For larger dog, you can buy cute bandanas
instead of bows. Of course, these professional dog grooming
supplies are totally optional!
Professional dog grooming supplies #11 : Grooming guides
Ok, this might be the wisest professional dog grooming supplies
you will need! You don't want to start cutting your dog's coat just
like that you want to learn first how to do it, no? So maybe a little
guide book, a "how to groom my own dog" book would be a
very wise buy.
