The Importance of Finding the Right Shampoo for Your Dog:
You might be tempted to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The issue is, human-grade shampoo isn't designed for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have special hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with certain formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or maybe dry coat cleansers for the times when you can't give your dog a full bath.
Think about the idea that your pup is ikely to roll in the garbage, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy spots, and it soon becomes evident why you need coat products that are designed to tackle these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't consist of the appropriate components to de-scent, heal dryness, or eliminate unwanted hitchhikers. At Berger's Agway, we stock a range of dog grooming products that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking fantastic.
Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles differing from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's crucial to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Some dogs grow thick undercoats while others have nearly no undercoat whatsoever. All coats need the right type of brush to minimize 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 professionals at Berger's Agway in Sciota. Drop in or give us a call at (570) 992-5300 to discuss the kind of coat and particular issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the very best for your dog.
