The Importance of Selecting the Best Shampoo for Your Dog:
You may be tempted to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The issue is, human-grade shampoo isn't made for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have unique hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with certain formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or even dry coat cleansers for the times when you can't give your dog a complete bath.
Think about the idea that your dog is ikely to roll in the garbage, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, itchy spots, and it quickly becomes evident why you really need coat products that are manufactured to handle these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't consist of the correct components to de-scent, heal dryness, or eliminate unwanted hitchhikers. At Luca's Pet Nutrition Center, we stock a variety of dog grooming products that satisfy your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking good.
Dog coats come in a range of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's important to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow compact undercoats while others have almost no undercoat whatsoever. All coats need the correct kind of brush to minimize pulling out healthy hair and prevent skin injury. Your dog may enjoy a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and require the lightest of touches. If you're not sure of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our experts at Luca's Pet Nutrition Center in Cleveland. Drop in or give us a call at (216) 279-0000 to discuss the kind of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the very best for your dog.
