The Importance of Picking the Best Shampoo for Your Pup:

You may 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 distinct hair and skin needs that call for shampoos and conditioners with specific formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or even dry coat cleaners for the times when you can't give your dog a full bath.

Think of the idea that your pup is ikely to roll in the garbage, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy patches, and it quickly becomes obvious why you need to have coat products that are created to address these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't contain the appropriate ingredients to de-scent, treat dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Great Dogs of Great Falls, we stock a variety of dog grooming products that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking great.

Dog coats come in a variety of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's vital to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Many dogs grow thick undercoats while others have almost no undercoat whatsoever. All coats need the best kind of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. Your dog may appreciate a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and require 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 Great Dogs of Great Falls in Great Falls. Drop in or give us a call at (703) 759-3601 to discuss the kind of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the most effective for your dog.
