The Importance of Finding the Best Shampoo for Your Dog:
You might 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 distinct hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with distinct formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or perhaps 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, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy patches, and it soon becomes obvious why you need to have coat products that are made to address these challenges. Human-grade shampoo won't include the proper components to de-scent, repair dryness, or deal with unwanted hitchhikers. At The Soggy Doggy, we stock a variety of dog grooming products that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking fantastic.
Dog coats come in a range of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's crucial to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Some dogs grow thick undercoats while others have nearly no undercoat whatsoever. All coats require the correct type of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. 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 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.
