Tips on Grooming Your Austrian Pinscher

    Low Maintenance: An occasional brushing will do.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Austrian Pinscher Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an essential element of standard pet care. Combing helps to keep your Austrian Pinscher dog's coat in good condition by removing loose hair and avoiding hair mats/knots.

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

    Brushing and grooming of your Austrian Pinscher dog are activities that help to enhance the positive relationship bond between your pet dog and you. Brushing should be a pleasant and comfy experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Austrian Pinscher

    How frequent to brush and groom your dog will rely 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 more recent activities.

    Dogs with short coats normally require much less brushing and grooming contrasted 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 conventional 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may instead like to try a soft grooming glove to gently remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Dogs should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should observe the condition of their dog's coat, trying to find any tangles/mats or dullness which indicates 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.
