Dogs are wonderful, loving pets who deserve attention and care. A dog's hair requires regular care to prevent tangling and parasites. In this article we will give you some tips for taking care of your dog's hair.

  1. Regular brushing

Dogs need to be brushed regularly to remove loose hair, dirt and tangles. Long hairs require daily brushing, while short hairs can be brushed once or twice a week. Use a brush appropriate for the length and texture of your little one's coat.

  1. Periodic bath

Dogs need periodic baths to keep their coats clean and healthy. The frequency of bathing depends on your dog's breed and lifestyle. Active dogs or those who spend a lot of time outdoors will need more baths than lazy dogs. Use a natural shampoo specifically designed for dogs and rinse well to avoid skin irritation.

However, don't be excessive about the frequency of washing your furry friend. In fact, showering your dog excessively or even daily will have the opposite effect and you risk ending up with a dog with irritated skin.

  1. Healthy eating

A healthy, balanced diet goes a long way in maintaining the health of your dog's coat. Foods rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids can help maintain a shiny, healthy coat.

Coconut oil has natural antimicrobial and antifungal properties, making it a great choice for preventing skin infections in dogs. By applying coconut oil to sensitive areas you can help maintain healthy skin.

The mistake not to make

Do not clip a dog with long hair! These are in fact useful for regulating body temperature. In winter, its coat acts like a coat and in summer, it cools it.

For the hairs to play their role correctly, it is necessary to maintain them. To do this, brush your dog daily, making sure to air out his hair. If you don't do this, knots and patches of hair will form.
