The Importance of Picking the Best Shampoo for Your Pup:
You may be lured 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 special hair and skin needs that require shampoos and conditioners with particular formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or maybe 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, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, itchy spots, and it soon becomes apparent why you really need coat products that are manufactured to take on these challenges. Human-grade shampoo won't have the correct ingredients to de-scent, repair dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Hot Diggity Pet Grocery & Boutique, we offer a range of dog grooming products that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking great.
Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's very important to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow thick undercoats while others have virtually no undercoat whatsoever. All coats require the best type of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. Your dog may enjoy 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 experts at Hot Diggity Pet Grocery & Boutique in Hyannis. Drop in or give us a call at (508) 957-2124 to discuss the kind of coat and specific issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
