We would suggest that you comb your dog at least a few times a week. Gentle daily combing is also okay if your dog enjoys it. We would suggest that you comb your dog more during heavy shedding periods or if they have particularly long or curly hair, this will prevent knots and matting. Also, be sure not to brush your dog too hard or too long, as this can irritate their skin and cause damage. It is also good to make sure that their coat is completely dry before you begin brushing or combing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the benefits of combing my dog?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Even if your dog is not a big shedder, they can still benefit from regular grooming. For example, combing helps to get rid of and prevent knots and matting. When left untreated, mats and knots can cause serious issues with your dog. Combing can help to stimulate blood flow, it massages the skin leading to a happier dog, and distribute natural oils evenly across their coat. It also gives you more one-on-one bonding time, offers you the opportunity to detect new lumps and bumps, and supports a shiny and attractive coat. And of course, combing can help remove loose hair and de-shed your pup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hertzko Grooming Comb This is easily one of the best tools for removing loose hair and cleaning up topcoats.
