Why Dog Grooming Isn’t Excessive, but Essential
Now if that didn’t convince you, consider these facts:
Dogs With ‘Hair’ not ‘Fur’ Require Regular Clipping.
This is because their hair is much like ours in that it keeps growing. This means they don’t shed (yay!) but ever-growing hair means hair-in-eyes and poo-on-bottom. Oodle crosses are a perfect example of a dog with ‘hair’. Coat Matting and Tangle Prevention A matted coat can cause pain. More so if your dog licks or bites themselves at the source. Grooming and clipping prevent tangles from developing. Matted and tangled fur results in trapped moisture underneath the coat. This can lead to irritation and infection.

Regular brushing and clipping your dog if its coat is hair is important to keep your pooch comfortable and healthy. Nasties that a good groom and clip allow us to find and manage (like ticks, fleas and infections) are all contributing factors to a wild dog living a shorter life than a domesticated one.
Protects Their Eyes
Clipping around the eyes prevents overgrown hair from blocking its vision and from hair rubbing at the eyes.
Clipping around the sanitary area ensures long hair doesn’t harbour bacteria (and undesirables aren’t left on your carpet). Protects from Bacteria Trimming inside and around the ears helps improve air movement and prevent ear infections. Prevents ear Infections
Why Do I Need to Groom and Clip My Dog? They Aren’t Pampered in the Wild!
Domesticated dog coats exist as they are because we’ve spent thousands of years finessing how we’d like these coats to look and feel. So, whilst we’ve bred dogs to be cute and cuddly this comes with a price of a coat that requires human intervention. Lots of it in some instances! The other simple fact is dogs in the wild don’t live as long or as comfortably as our pets. Nasties that a good groom and clip allow us to find and manage (like ticks, fleas and infections) are all contributing factors to a wild dog living a shorter life than a domesticated one.
