Tips on Grooming Your Bull Arab

    The short, harsh coat is easy to groom. Comb and brush with a firm bristle brush, and bathe only when necessary. This breed is an average shedder.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Bull Arab Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an important component of everyday pet care. Brushing assists to keep your Bull Arab dog's coat in good condition by removing loose hair and preventing hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also assists to distribute healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, promoting a shining coat and helping dirt to slide off the hair. This can also help to lessen the need to bath and therefore minimize the regularity of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Bull Arab dog are tasks that help to enhance the good relationship bond between your pet and you. Brushing should be a pleasant and comfy experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Bull Arab

    How often to brush and groom your dog will depend on each individual dog. Dogs tend to contrast in their need for brushing because of their coat type and length and also depending on their recent activities.

    Dogs with short coats generally require much less brushing and grooming compared to dogs with medium to long haired coats as these longer coats can get tangles, mats and debris trapped in them more quickly.

    Some very short-haired dogs may not need standard 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may rather like to try a soft grooming glove to gently remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Pet dogs should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should keep an eye on the condition of their dog's coat, trying to find any tangles/mats or dullness which suggests they might need a brush. Grooming can take anything from a few minutes to a number of hours a week depending on your type of dog.
