Any Q

You should brush your dog every couple of days no matter the length of his coat. Sometimes your brushing can have a specific purpose, such as removing hair mats or helping your dog shed his seasonal coat, but most often you'll be doing general-purpose brushing or combing.


How long should I brush my dog for?

Brushing them every day for at least 15 minutes during their coat blow will help speed up the process, keep them comfortable, and stop the furballs from falling out all around your home.

How many times a day should a dog be brushed?

According to PetMD, aiming for a thorough brushing two to three times per week should be plenty to keep your dog's teeth clean and free of plaque and tartar buildup. And, just like you wouldn't spend an hour brushing your teeth, there's no need to spend too much time on your dog's oral hygiene routine.
