The Importance of Choosing the Proper Shampoo for Your Dog:
You might be enticed to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The problem 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 call for shampoos and conditioners with particular formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or perhaps dry coat cleansers for the times when you can't give your dog a complete 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 soon becomes obvious why you need to have coat products that are manufactured to deal with these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't consist of the proper components to de-scent, repair dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Premier Pet Supply, we stock a variety of dog grooming products that satisfy your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking great.
Dog coats come in a variety of textures with hair follicles differing from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's important to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Many dogs grow dense undercoats while others have nearly no undercoat at all. All coats need the right kind of brush to decrease pulling out healthy hair and prevent skin damage. Your dog may appreciate a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and need the lightest of touches. If you're not exactly sure of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our experts at Premier Pet Supply in Troy. Drop in or give us a call at (248) 677-0154 to discuss the kind of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
