The Importance of Selecting the Best Shampoo for Your Dog:
You could be tempted to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The issue is, human-grade shampoo isn't created 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 even dry coat cleansers for the times when you can't give your dog a complete bath.
Think of the idea that your pup is ikely to roll in the garbage, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy spots, and it quickly becomes apparent why you need to have coat products that are designed to address these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't consist of the proper components to de-scent, repair dryness, or deal with unwanted hitchhikers. At The Modern Paws, we offer a variety of dog grooming products that satisfy your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking great.
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. Some dogs grow thick undercoats while others have almost no undercoat at all. All coats need the best kind of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin injury. Your dog may take pleasure in a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and need the lightest of touches. If you're unsure of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our professionals at The Modern Paws in Tampa. Stop in or give us a call at (813) 841-1805 to discuss the type of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the very best for your dog.
