Having the right grooming tools and knowing how to use them properly is very important when grooming your pet. The hair brush should be suitable for the type and length of your pet's hair coat. For starters, run the hair brush from your pet’s front end and slowly work your way toward the back. This will help make sure that all areas of the body are well-groomed. If there are tangles, use a comb to tease them out, making sure to hold the hair at skin level to avoid hurting your pet. Depending on the type and length of the hair coat, some dogs need daily brushing compared to others. Your pet’s grooming regimen should also include nail trimming, tooth brushing, and ear cleaning.
