The Importance of Finding the Right Shampoo for Your Pup:
You could be tempted to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The problem is, human-grade shampoo isn't made for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have distinct hair and skin needs that call for 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 full bath.
Consider the idea that your pup is ikely to roll in the garbage, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy patches, and it soon becomes obvious why you need coat products that are designed to deal with these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't have the appropriate components to de-scent, treat dryness, or deal with unwanted hitchhikers. At Healthy Pet Products Florida, 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 an array of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's vital to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Some dogs grow compact undercoats while others have nearly no undercoat whatsoever. All coats require the right type of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and avoid 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 Healthy Pet Products Florida in Port Charlotte. Drop in or give us a call at (941) 883-2627 to discuss the type of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
