    Why Brush or Groom Your Cairmal Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an imperative part of everyday pet care. Combing really helps to keep your Cairmal dog's coat in good condition by taking out loose hair and preventing hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also helps to spread healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, ensuring a gleaming coat and helping dust to slide off the hair. This can also help to reduce the need to bath and therefore reduce the regularity of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Cairmal dog are activities that help to enhance the positive connection bond between your family pet and you. Brushing should be a pleasurable and comfortable experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Cairmal

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

    Dogs with short coats typically 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 easily.

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

    Dogs should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should keep track of the condition of their dog's coat, searching for any tangles/mats or dullness which suggests they might need a brush. Grooming can take anything from a couple of minutes to several hours a week depending on your type of dog.
