The Importance of Selecting the Proper Shampoo for Your Pup:
You might be lured to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The issue is, human-grade shampoo isn't made for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have special hair and skin needs that call for shampoos and conditioners with certain 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 full bath.
Take into consideration the idea that your dog is ikely to roll in the garbage, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy spots, and it quickly becomes obvious why you should have coat products that are designed to take on these issues. Human-grade shampoo won't have the proper ingredients to de-scent, repair dryness, or eliminate unwanted hitchhikers. At Three Happy Hounds, we offer a range of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking great.
Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's very important to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Many dogs grow dense undercoats while others have virtually no undercoat at all. All coats need the right type of brush to decrease pulling out healthy hair and prevent 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 experts at Three Happy Hounds in Fernley. Stop in or give us a call at (775) 404-4084 to discuss the kind of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the very best for your dog.
