Tips on Grooming Your Bedlington Terrier

    High Maintenance: Grooming should be performed often to keep the dog's coat in good shape. Professional groomers can be sought after for assistance. Occasional trimming or stripping needed.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Bedlington Terrier Dog?

    Grooming and combing your dog's hair coat is an imperative component of standard pet care. Combing helps to keep your Bedlington Terrier dog's coat in good condition by taking out loose hair and avoiding hair mats/knots.

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

    Brushing and grooming of your Bedlington Terrier dog are activities that help to strengthen the good relationship bond between your pet and you. Brushing should be a pleasurable and comfortable experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Bedlington Terrier

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

    Dogs with short coats commonly require 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 quickly.

    Some very short-haired pet dogs 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.

    Pet dogs should be brushed 'as required'. 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.
