You can achieve the glory of a flowing coat on your dog. Starting Off Grooming your dog should be a pleasant and gratifying experience. Your dog will enjoy the attention you give it, and the soothing strokes of a brush or comb will impress your pup. You should start your grooming sessions as soon as you get your dog. If you begin grooming when your pup is 6 to 8 weeks of age, you can accustom the dog to the procedures before the task becomes more time-consuming.
Dogs go through stages in their coat development.
The coat changes as the dog goes from puppyhood to adolescence to adulthood. Most puppies' coats are easier to maintain than the coats they'll wear as adults. You can gradually master the necessary grooming skills required for an adolescent dog, and your skills will improve as your pup begins to sport the adult-type coat of your chosen breed. Don't be surprised if your puppy resists your efforts to enhance its appearance. Most pups wiggle to escape the brush, yelp to avoid toenail clippers and scamper from the spot of such activities.
