Tips on Grooming Your Mudi

    Low Maintenance: Infrequent grooming is required to maintain upkeep. No trimming or stripping needed.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Mudi Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an important part of everyday pet care. Brushing helps to keep your Mudi 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 gleaming coat and helping dirt to slide off the hair. This can also help to lessen the need to bath and therefore lower the regularity of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Mudi dog are activities that help to enhance the positive connection bond between your dog and you. Brushing should be a pleasant and comfy experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Mudi

    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 more recent activities.

    Dogs with short coats frequently 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 canines may not need conventional 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may instead like to try a soft grooming glove to delicately remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Dogs should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should keep track of the condition of their dog's coat, trying to find any tangles/mats or dullness which indicates they might need a brush. Grooming can take anything from a few minutes to a number of hours a week depending on your type of dog.
