The dog is one of the most loved animals on the planet. Children adore them and so do the adults. Families consider their dog as a member of the family and they take good care of it. One of the most important parts in caring for a dog is the grooming. The grooming process will enhance the dog beauty and will keep it healthy, away from diseases. Depending on the breed, the dog hair can have a lot of textures, length and color and the caring can be different.
You should know that hair loss has many reasons. The vet can determine those causes. Some of them can be: stress, disease, excessive scratching, the changing of the season. Some endocrine gland diseases can also cause hair loss.
According to the breed you can determine the number of times you have to wash the dog and groom it. Depending on the breed you will also choose the dog shampoo you will use. If the dog you have spends a great deal of time outdoors, you should use some anti flea shampoo. Also, you can talk to the doctor and get him to recommend you a shampoo that is great at reducing some allergic reactions. Also, you can use mineral oil and get the dog a hair massage. Use cotton balls to clean the area around the eyes. You can also use a sponge or even a towel.
When the flees bite the dog, a very small saliva quantity is injected in the dog skin, preventing the blood from coagulation. This is why some dogs can become really sensitive to the saliva. This can sometimes develop into flea allergy dermatitis.
After you bathe the dog you need to put tick powder on the coat and then brush the coat again. Breeds like Labrador and German Shepherds need special attention.
