The Importance of Selecting the Best Shampoo for Your Dog:
You could be lured to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The challenge is, human-grade shampoo isn't developed for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have distinct hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with specific 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 full bath.
Think of 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 need to have coat products that are created to address these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't contain the appropriate components to de-scent, treat dryness, or eliminate unwanted hitchhikers. At Luca's Pet Nutrition Center, we stock a range of dog grooming products that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking great.
Dog coats come in a variety of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's important to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Many dogs grow compact undercoats while others have virtually no undercoat at all. All coats need the right type of brush to minimize pulling out healthy hair and prevent skin damage. Your dog may enjoy a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and need 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 professionals at Luca's Pet Nutrition Center in Cleveland. Drop in or give us a call at (216) 279-0000 to discuss the type of coat and particular issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the very best for your dog.
