    Why Brush or Groom Your Deutsche Bracke Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an imperative component of everyday pet care. Combing helps to keep your Deutsche Bracke dog's coat in good condition by taking out loose hair and preventing hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also helps to spread 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 decrease the need to bath and therefore decrease the frequency of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Deutsche Bracke dog are activities that help to enhance the positive relationship bond between your dog and you. Brushing should be a pleasurable and comfortable experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Deutsche Bracke

    How frequent to brush and groom your dog will depend on each personal 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 usually require less brushing and grooming compared 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 carefully remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Canines should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should keep track of 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 few minutes to several hours a week depending on your type of dog.
