    How Often to Groom Your Standard Schnauzer

    How frequent to brush and groom your dog will rely 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 usually 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 quickly.

    Some very short-haired pet dogs may not need conventional '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 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 few minutes to several hours a week depending on your type of dog.
