For a well groomed appearance, pets need to be combed and brushed regularly. It is important to brush the pet's entire coate before bathing or stripping. Directions Poodles-Dead hair does not readily fall out of their coats. That's why it is important that poodles be brushed two or three times a week. Their coats should be brushed to the skin to avoid deep matting. Terriers- (West Highland White, Airedale, Miniature Schnauzer, Wire Fox, Cairn, Kerry Blue) First brush in direction of hair growth, then against it to remove mats and tangles. Dogs with Long Flowing Coats- (Lhasa, Apso, Afghan, Irish Setter, etc.) Brush in the direction of hair growth, parting the layers. Use a light stroke which goes beyond the end of the hair to avoid breakage. Dogs with Harsh Outer Coats and Soft Wooly Undercoats- (Sheepdogs, Collies, Shepherds, etc.) Working on a small section at a time, part the hair to the skin and brush in the direction of the hair growth. It is important to use a light stroke so that not too much undercoat is removed. Cats To prevent hairballs, short-haired cats need to be brushed every few days. Long haired cats should be brushed daily, especially during shedding periods. Using short light strokes, brush the coat against the direction of hair growth. To smooth the coat, brush in the direction of hair growth.
