The Importance of Choosing the Best Shampoo for Your Dog:
You may be tempted to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The problem is, human-grade shampoo isn't developed for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have special hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with certain formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or even dry coat cleaners for the times when you can't give your dog a complete bath.
Think about the idea that your pup is ikely to roll in the garbage, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, itchy spots, and it soon becomes evident why you should have coat products that are manufactured to address these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't have the proper ingredients to de-scent, treat dryness, or deal with unwanted hitchhikers. At Boofy's Best for Pets, we stock a range of dog grooming supplies that satisfy your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking fantastic.
Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles differing from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's very important to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow dense undercoats while others have practically no undercoat whatsoever. All coats need the right kind of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. 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 Boofy's Best for Pets in Albuquerque. Drop in or give us a call at (505) 884-3855 to discuss the type of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
