Tips on Grooming Your French Spaniel

    The French Spaniel needs regular brushing but only bathe when necessary. French Spaniels are light shedders and are generally a low maintenance dog.

    Why Brush or Groom Your French Spaniel Dog?

    Grooming and combing your dog's hair coat is an essential part of everyday pet care. Brushing helps to keep your French Spaniel dog's coat in good condition by getting rid of loose hair and avoiding hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also helps to spread 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 decrease the need to bath and therefore reduce the regularity of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your French Spaniel dog are tasks that help to reinforce the positive connection bond between your family pet and you. Brushing should be an enjoyable and comfortable experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your French Spaniel

    How often to brush and groom your dog will rely on each personal dog. Dogs tend to contrast in their need for brushing because of their coat type and length and also depending on their more 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 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 needed'. Owners should monitor the condition of their dog's coat, looking for any tangles/mats or dullness which indicates 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.
