Maintaining your Dogs Coat at Home

It’s essential to care for your dog’s coat at home between grooming sessions. Different coat will require specific tools and grooming schedules. Below, we've provided equipment recommendations based on your dog's coat type. We recommend the following grooming schedules, taking into account factors like age, coat length, and lifestyle:

WOOL COAT (Poodle, Bichon, Cockapoo, etc.): Groom every 6 weeks, or ideally more often with a bath appointment in between Daily brushing at home is advised.

SILK COAT (Spaniel, Maltese, etc.): Groom every 6 to 8 weeks. Regular brushing at home is recommended.

WIRE COAT (Border Terrier, Westie etc.): Groom every 6 to 8 weeks. Regular brushing at home is recommended.

DOUBLE COAT (Border Collie, Newfoundland, Golden Retriever): Groom every 12 weeks. Regular brushing at home is important.

SMOOTH COAT (Labrador, Pug, French Bulldog, etc.): Groom every 12 weeks Consistent brushing at home is recommended.
