The Importance of Finding 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 created for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have special hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with distinct formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or maybe dry coat cleaners for the times when you can't give your dog a full bath.
Consider 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 to have coat products that are designed to tackle these challenges. Human-grade shampoo won't consist of the proper components to de-scent, treat dryness, or eliminate unwanted hitchhikers. At Natural Pet Food Solutions, we offer a range of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking fantastic.
Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's important to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Many dogs grow compact undercoats while others have nearly no undercoat whatsoever. All coats require the correct type of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and stop 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 uncertain of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our experts at Natural Pet Food Solutions in Portland. Drop in or give us a call at (971) 373-8077 to discuss the kind of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the most effective for your dog.
