Tips on Grooming Your Puli

    High Maintenance: Grooming should be performed often to keep the dog's coat in good shape. Professional groomers can be sought after for assistance.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Puli Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an essential part of general pet care. Brushing helps to keep your Puli dog's coat in good condition by taking out loose hair and avoiding hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also assists to spread healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, promoting a glossy coat and helping dirt to slide off the hair. This can also help to minimize the need to bath and therefore minimize the frequency of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Puli dog are tasks that help to reinforce the good connection bond between your pet dog and you. Brushing should be a pleasant and comfy experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Puli

    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 typically 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 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.

    Pet dogs should be brushed 'as needed'. Owners should keep track of the condition of their dog's coat, trying to find 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.
