Why Brush or Groom Your Cockalier Dog?
Brushing also assists to spread healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, promoting a shiny coat and helping dust 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 Cockalier dog are tasks that help to reinforce the positive connection bond between your pet and you. Brushing should be a pleasurable and relaxed experience for your pet and you.
How Often to Groom Your Cockalier
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 traditional 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may rather like to try a soft grooming glove to carefully remove loose hair, occasionally.
Pet dogs should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should keep an eye on 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 couple of minutes to a number of hours a week depending on your type of dog.
