How to Groom a Dog with a Dual-Coat

I am the proud mother of two beautiful Australian Shepherd pups, and I would do anything for them. This includes cleaning up their dog hair all day. If you are struggling like me, I have some tips on how to groom a dog with a dual-coat.

Warning, this will not make the shedding stop. The shedding never stops. The best we can do as furmoms is to manage the chaos.

BRUSHES

My grooming routine includes a deslicking brush, a deshedding rake, a deshedding brush and a weird tool that looks like it could be medieval. Watch the video above for more information on each tool.

NUTRITION

However, I think the most important thing I do is make sure my dogs have a healthy set of hair.

When you dog has healthy hair, it really slows down the natural shedding process, making all puppy moms happy.

First, I start by making sure my dog is eating quality food. Make sure the first ingredient in your dog food is a meat, not corn. Quality dog food keeps your dogs full, itch-free and healthy.

However, a good dog food is not enough to stop the shedding.

Salmon oil keeps your dogs coat shiny and strong. I promise you will notice a difference after a week of using Premium Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil for Dogs and Cats.

I use two pumps in my dogs food, and he eats it right up. The label has serving suggestions for your dog’s weight.

I have been so impressed since I started using the oil, and the bottle lasts for a good while!
