What are the ways to comb a hard-haired dog?

Mini Schnauzer (details)

Different breeds of dogs have different coat textures. Some dogs' coats are soft as silk, while others are quite hard. Therefore, when helping different dogs to take care of their coats, the tools needed and the methods used are different. Then let's talk about the grooming method for hard-haired dogs first.

The scraper brush was originally used to comb the bristled dog. Like the Western Highland White and Mini Schnauzer (details) dogs, they all have a hard surface coat, which can be used for daily care with a scraper.

scraping and brushing can be divided into two types: the soft type with soft and thin comb pins and the hard type with stiff comb pins. Bristle dogs should choose a hard scraper. Soft hair scraping brush is suitable for some soft hair dog breeds such as Marquis and Yorkshire (details).

when choosing, you should choose one that is elastic and the comb needle will not be skewed when combing bristles.

combing method: comb carefully from the back half to the front half to avoid missing places. It doesn't matter if the order is reversed. When combing, first comb the inner hair neatly, and then tidy the surface coat. It is best not to use too much force when combing, so as not to comb the undiscovered knots and hurt the dog.

hind legs: it will be easier to comb if you lift your legs a little. The hind legs have raised ankles, so you should pay attention when combing.

Face: Hair around the face, such as beard, should be combed along the direction of the head. The hair around the mouth should be combed in the direction of the dog itself. And hold the dog's mouth firmly so as not to hurt it by moving.

Dogs' hair needs to be combed regularly, and different dogs' hair grooming methods are different, so how to comb their dogs' coat correctly still needs the owner to learn more.
