Tips on Grooming Your Manchester Terrier

    Low Maintenance: Grooming is only necessary once in a while to maintain upkeep.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Manchester Terrier Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an important component of standard pet care. Brushing helps to keep your Manchester Terrier dog's coat in good condition by getting rid of loose hair and preventing hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also assists to spread healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, ensuring a shiny coat and helping dirt to slide off the hair. This can also help to reduce the need to bath and therefore reduce the occurrence of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Manchester Terrier dog are tasks that help to strengthen the positive connection bond between your family pet and you. Brushing should be a pleasurable and comfortable experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Manchester Terrier

    How often to brush and groom your dog will depend on each personal dog. Dogs tend to differ 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 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 standard 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may instead like to try a soft grooming glove to carefully remove loose hair, occasionally.

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

Manchester Terrier Information

The Manchester terrier is perhaps the sleekest and raciest of all terriers, with a smooth, compact, muscular body, slightly longer than tall and a slightly arched topline. The combination of power and agility enables the breed to course and kill small game and vermin. Its gait is free and effortless, not hackney. Its expression is keen and alert, and its coat is smooth and glossy.

The Manchester terrier has been described as "catlike," being impeccably clean, independent, reserved with strangers, yet sensitive. It is more responsive than many terriers and is generally a well-mannered house dog. It is devoted to its family, and enjoys napping at its special person's side. Otherwise, it is busy, ever nosing around for adventure or a game. Some tend to dig.
