The Importance of Picking the Best Shampoo for Your Dog:
You could be tempted to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The problem is, human-grade shampoo isn't developed for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have unique hair and skin needs that call for shampoos and conditioners with particular 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 full bath.
Take into consideration the idea that your dog is ikely to roll in the garbage, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy patches, and it soon becomes obvious why you need coat products that are designed to tackle these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't consist of the appropriate ingredients to de-scent, treat dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Fancy Paws LLC, we stock a range of dog grooming products that satisfy your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking good.
Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles differing from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's vital to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow compact undercoats while others have virtually no undercoat at all. All coats require the best type of brush to minimize pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin injury. Your dog may appreciate a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and require the lightest of touches. If you're not sure of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our experts at Fancy Paws LLC in Elkins. Stop in or give us a call at (304) 636-4916 to discuss the kind of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
