Tips on Grooming Your Bullmastiff

    Low Maintenance: Grooming is only necessary once in a while to maintain upkeep. No trimming or stripping needed.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Bullmastiff Dog?

    Grooming and combing your dog's hair coat is an important element of standard pet care. Combing helps to keep your Bullmastiff dog's coat in good condition by removing loose hair and preventing hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also helps to distribute healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, promoting a shining coat and helping dust to slide off the hair. This can also help to reduce the need to bath and therefore decrease the frequency of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Bullmastiff dog are tasks that help to enhance the positive connection bond between your family pet and you. Brushing should be an enjoyable and relaxed experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Bullmastiff

    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 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 pet dogs may not need conventional 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may instead like to try a soft grooming glove to carefully remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Canines should be brushed 'as needed'. Owners should observe 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.

Bullmastiff Information

This nearly square breed should be powerful and active — a combination of strength, endurance and alertness. It should appear to be 60 percent mastiff and 40 percent bulldog. Its gait is smooth and powerful, but its angulation is moderate. Its coat is short and dense, and its expression keen and alert. These attributes allowed the bullmastiff to both overtake and over-power intruders.

The mastiff is innately good-natured, calm, easygoing and surprisingly gentle. It is a well-mannered house pet, but it needs sufficient room to stretch out. This is an extremely loyal breed, and though not excessively demonstrative, it is devoted to its family and good with children.
