Dog Grooming Supplies

To keep pets healthy and happy, proper nutrition and exercise are critical, but a proper grooming regimen is just as important. Whether you are grooming your pet in the comfort of your own home or working as a groomer, there are many aspects to grooming a dog. There are multiple tools and supplies needed to effectively tend to all of the dogs needs.

Dogs can have a variety of hair styles, lengths, and types, so it is important to ensure that you have the correct tools for your pet grooming needs.

• Bristle Brushes: This type of pet brush is a great all-around brush for dogs, and these products can vary in length and in composition, from thick, firm bristles to softer, more delicate ones.
• Slick Brushes: Slick brushes are able to effectively detangle pet hair and break up tough mats in the dogs hair or fur. These grooming brushes generally work on animals with longer hair.
• Wire Brushes: A wire pin brush works effectively on pets with medium-length or long hair.
• Flea Combs: These grooming combs work to detect the presence of fleas on a pets coat.
• Rakes: Rakes are built to break up even the toughest tangles to provide the dog with a smooth, detangled coat.
• Shedding Tools: Some grooming brushes incorporate metal teeth, which help to remove excess and loose hairs from a dog. These brushes help to reduce shedding and are suited for double-coated dog breeds.

There are a variety of pet nail clippers available, and certain trimmers are designed to work on different types of dogs.

• Scissor Trimmers: These nail clippers work similarly to a pair of scissors, and they are ideal for smaller dogs with smaller nails.
• Spring-Loaded Clippers: These clippers utilize a spring-loaded mechanism to help cut through larger and tougher pet claws.
• Files: Files can come in both manual and electric models, and these can be used to shave down sharp spots on animal claws. They can be used in place of a trimmer if needed.
• Styptic Powder: Styptic powder is a useful tool to have available, as it can be used to stop any bleeding if the dogs claw is cut too short.

Bathing is a very important part of pet grooming, as it helps to heal any inflamed skin, reduce itching, kill parasites, and remove dead hair and fur. Dogs have a higher skin pH than humans, so they require a pH-specific shampoo to cater to their needs. When grooming your pet, it is also important to use a product without harsh chemicals to protect the animals thin and sensitive skin.
