The Importance of Choosing the Proper Shampoo for Your Pup:
You might be enticed 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 special hair and skin needs that call for shampoos and conditioners with distinct formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or perhaps dry coat cleansers for the times when you can't give your dog a complete bath.
Consider 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 should have coat products that are manufactured to address these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't have the correct components to de-scent, repair dryness, or eliminate unwanted hitchhikers. At CB Pet Market, we stock a variety of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking fantastic.
Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's vital to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Some dogs grow compact undercoats while others have nearly no undercoat whatsoever. All coats require the right kind of brush to minimize pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin damage. 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 CB Pet Market in Livingston. Drop in or give us a call at (973) 486-6007 to discuss the kind of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
