Tips on Grooming Your Spinone Italiano

Moderate Maintenance: This breed requires just a small amount of stripping—pulling dead hair—as opposed to cutting, to neaten the coat. Other than that, just a weekly brushing will suffice. Bathe as necessary. Some say this breed grooms himself like a cat.

Why Brush or Groom Your Spinone Italiano Dog?

Grooming and combing your dog's hair coat is an imperative component of standard pet care. Brushing really helps to keep your Spinone Italiano dog's coat in good condition by taking out loose hair and avoiding hair mats/knots.

Brushing also serves to help 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 decrease the need to bath and therefore lower the frequency of bathing.

Brushing and grooming of your Spinone Italiano dog are activities that help to enhance the good connection bond between your family pet and you. Brushing should be an enjoyable and relaxed experience for your pet and you.



How Often to Groom Your Spinone Italiano

How often to brush and groom your dog will depend upon each personal dog. Dogs tend to differ 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 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 canines may not need conventional '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 observe the condition of their dog's coat, searching 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.
