The Importance of Finding the Best Shampoo for Your Pup:
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 formulated for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have distinct hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with certain formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or perhaps dry coat cleaners 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, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, itchy spots, and it quickly becomes apparent why you need coat products that are created to handle these challenges. Human-grade shampoo won't have the proper ingredients to de-scent, heal dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Sam's Cats & Dogs Naturally, we stock a variety of dog grooming products that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking good.
Dog coats come in a variety of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's vital to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow compact undercoats while others have practically no undercoat at all. All coats need the correct kind of brush to minimize pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin damage. Your dog may appreciate a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and require the lightest of touches. If you're uncertain of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our professionals at Sam's Cats & Dogs Naturally in Redmond. Drop in or give us a call at (425) 636-8231 to discuss the kind of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
