and it can be difficult for a dog to get around on those hard surfaces if their hair is too long,” he cautions. Use a good shampoo, followed
by a thorough rinse: A dog’s skin has a different pH level than ours, so avoid using human hair care prod- ucts. Instead, Bryant suggests selecting shampoos that contain oatmeal or tea tree oil, which address a range of skin issues and have soothing properties, and follow with a good rinse. “Remember, the most important part of any doggie bath is to thor- oughly rinse all shampoo from the dog’s body,” he says. Conditioner is not essential unless the pet has long hair or is prone to matting. Dogs with long hair also need a good combing while the fur is still damp; otherwise, they are ready for a thorough rubdown with a thick towel. Finally, a gentle doggie massage helps end bath time on a soothing note. It pays to hire pros: Getting your dog groomed can be a costly investment, but the price includes more than a fluff and cut. “Each time your pet is professionally groomed, he is actually examined from head to toe,” Bryant reports. “I have dis- covered teeth problems, joint prob- lems, and hair and skin problems that many of my clients never would have noticed.”
