When do I need to groom my dog?
Trim or clip the dog, why should you do it? Not all dog breeds need to be clipped, for example, many short-haired and wire-haired breeds manage without coat trimming. But breeds that may regularly need to trim the coat are those with longer fur or curly fur. Either the dog is clipped regularly all seasons, or you clip one or more times during the summer. Dogs that have long or dense fur may have problems with ear infections, fungi and skin problems if the skin and fur is not properly taken care of. If the dog has a lot of fur in its ears, it can get damp and dirt and wax gathers and become more difficult to clean out - this is a risk factor that can lead to ear infections. The coat can be trimmed with trimmer or scissors to keep hygienically short in the ears.
Around the eyes or mouth, dogs may also need trimming. Just make sure you do not cut the dog's whiskers and sensory hair. Around the mouth there is also easily trapped moisture in dense fur which can lead to fungal infections and skin inflammations. Here too, the coat can be kept trimmed to prevent this. If you have a dog that gets a lot of fur around the eyes, and maybe in the eyes, it can be nice for the dog if the coat is kept short. Around the tail and butt is another place where some dogs may need to be trimmed or clipped to stay clean and hygienic.
One can also trim the dog to avoid tangles and give the dog better opportunities to regulate his body temperature. A trimmed dog's fur is not tangled as easily, which makes the coat more easy to care for. If the coat is trimmed or clipped then you will avoid larger amounts of dog hair at home when the dog sheds. Even if the dog is clipped it is good if you brush and comb regularly to keep the coat in good condition between clippings.
