Reasons For Grooming

Grooming is an important part of dog care. Depending on the breed, age, and health of the dog, grooming may be a daily activity. Many breeds require significantly less grooming than this, but regular grooming helps to ensure the dog is healthy and comfortable. It is important to note that while many dogs shed, others (such as the Poodle), do not shed . Instead, their coat grows much like human hair and therefore requires trimming.

The main reasons for daily grooming include:

* improved health of the skin and coat
* decreased chance of various health problems, such as thrush, scratches, and other skin problems
* general cleanliness of the dog
* monitoring of the dog's health by checking for cuts, heat, swelling, lameness, or changes in temperament (such as depression) , all of which could be indicative of illness
* forging of a closer relationship between dog and owner
