The Importance of Finding the Proper Shampoo for Your Pup:
You may be lured to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The issue 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 specific 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.
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 quickly becomes evident why you need coat products that are created to take on these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't have the correct components to de-scent, treat dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At The Soggy Doggy, we stock a variety of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking fantastic.
Dog coats come in a range of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's important to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow compact undercoats while others have almost no undercoat at all. All coats require the best type of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. Your dog may take pleasure in 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 The Soggy Doggy in Federal Way. Drop in or give us a call at (253) 838-3109 to discuss the kind of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the most effective for your dog.
