Dogs —Their Grooming Requirements

Dog grooming is one of your dog’s basic needs and an important part of dog ownership. The essential grooming requirements depend on the dog’s breed and its characteristics and the dog hair is the first thing that most pet keepers are concerned with. Another important aspect of dog grooming is to clean his face, teeth, ears, eyes and nails.

Different breed of dogs have different hair types. There are three types of hair types: straight, wire, and curly. According to the length of hair there are three types of coat – Long, medium and short. Coats can either be single or double in density. Double coats consist of outer guard hairs, with an inner layer of shorter, finer coat called undercoat. Knowing what type of coat your dog has will give you information to contemplate the amount of grooming and care that your specific breed will need.

Generally long hair dogs need more regular grooming than short or medium hair dogs. Their coats must be groomed several times a week, if not daily, to ensure that they remain free of tangles and mats. On the other hand, dogs with short or medium coats offer the greatest ease of care, requiring occasional grooming with a slicker brush or a soft brush. Even for a dog like English Mastiff, which however sheds year round there is no need of extensive or professional grooming due to his shorthaired coat.

Mastiff — The Mastiff (also known as the ‘English Mastiff’) is a double coat breed who has a short, straight outer coat with a dense, shorter undercoat. Care of this huge Dog Coat is undemanding. Mastiffs require minimal grooming except when shedding and then brushing with a rubber brush will remove loose hairs. As with all very large dogs, the Mastiff needs a soft place to lie down to avoid pressure marks. It is rare that a Mastiff needs a bath. Bathing is necessary only when the dog is dirty. Clean his wrinkles daily to prevent bacterial infections. Wipe them out with a damp washcloth and then dry them thoroughly. A flea comb can be used to keep Mastiff Puppies free from pesticide.

Beagle— The Beagle has a hound type coat of medium length making grooming relatively easy for this breed. Their typically short, tight hair growth rarely requires professional grooming. As part of your Beagle grooming brushing with a grooming glove or soft brush will generally be enough to keep the coat healthy and clean. This breed is an average shedder, which can be controlled with regular combing. Bathe only when necessary with a mild or dry shampoo. Beagle Puppies shed often and should be brushed several times a week using a hound glove to remove excess hair as well as a fine-tooth flea comb to remove any dirt and excess hair.

Dog grooming also involves nail trimming, ear and teeth care. Ears should be checked regularly, and cleaned when needed. Baby wipes are excellent for cleaning ears. Dogs should have their toenails cut every two months or so with dog nail trimmer. Lastly, it’s not just humans who need to keep their teeth clean. Your dog can also develop cavities and other diseases of the mouth, teeth, and gums. You need toothpaste and a toothbrush designed for dogs; use them a couple of times each week. Take your dog to the vet once a year for dog dental care.

Hi everyone. Ok well here is my question. Im 22 yrs old and I am a nanny to a 2 yr old boy at his home. Today?

as I was getting ready to walk out the front door purse in hand, his dad said hey before u leave can u do one little thing for me. I said sure and to my surprise he said ” can u please wet this towel and wipe that toothpaste off of brownies hind leg, she got into the tooth paste last night”
Now brownie is the family pitbull. I was shocked that he would ask me to wipe toothpaste off his DOG! when I am his sons nanny.
So I the smart ass that I am said….” oh sure chase ( which is the little boy) got into some toothpaste I will wipe it off right away” and he said oh no not chase the DOG did LAST NIGHT!!! So i said im sorry I cant do that. And he asked why, and I said becuase thats gross and its not really my job to wipe tooth paste off your dog Im really sorry. And he said ok. SO i guess my question is did I react ok????? or was he right???? Im still sooooo upset that he would ask me to do that geez

I think you absolutely did the right thing. What I can’t get over is that this poor dog got into toothpaste somehow and then the people are too lazy to wipe it off when it is still wet, but expect you to do it after its been there for hours and no doubt dried and nasty. Even if they did not find out until the next day, they say he did it last night so I am assuming they had to know when the dog did it, they still should have wiped it off as soon as they knew. You were right to refuse, your jobs is to take care of their child, not do their grunt work.

Hope everything goes better from now on!
