    Why Brush or Groom Your Chorkie Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an imperative element of standard pet care. Combing helps to keep your Chorkie 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, ensuring a glossy coat and helping dust to slide off the hair. This can also help to lessen the need to bath and therefore minimize the occurrence of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Chorkie dog are activities that help to strengthen the positive relationship bond between your pet and you. Brushing should be a pleasurable and comfy experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Chorkie

    How frequent 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 latest activities.

    Dogs with short coats generally 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 easily.

    Some very short-haired pet 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 required'. Owners should observe the condition of their dog's coat, looking for any tangles/mats or dullness which suggests they might need a brush. Grooming can take anything from a few minutes to several hours a week depending on your type of dog.
