One basic grooming dog care need is nail trimming, which should be done at least every two weeks. Most owners have a fear of cutting down to the quick, which will then hurt the dog and also make the nail bleed. Most dogs aren't willing to have their nails trimmed after this has happened.
Nails that are too long can become ingrown or they can damage floors and furniture, or deeply scratch people or other dogs. Even if you know how to trim your dog's nails, if you are uncomfortable taking care of this yourself, then it is wiser to have someone at a dog saloon or your veterinarian do the job.
Dog care encompasses all aspects of taking responsibility for your four legged friend. A good dog owner will schedule time for nails to be trimmed, baths to be done, and ears to be cleaned.
While dog shampoo isn't necessary for each bath as it can dry out the skin, a time in the tub with warm water will remove mud and dirt. Nail trimming is necessary, yet to make it comfortable for the owner and the dog, it may be best to have a grooming saloon take care of the job.
