The Importance of Picking the Right Shampoo for Your Dog:

You might be lured to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The problem is, human-grade shampoo isn't made for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have distinct 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 cleaners for the times when you can't give your dog a full bath.

Consider the idea that your dog is ikely to roll in the garbage, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, itchy patches, and it quickly becomes obvious why you should have coat products that are developed to take on these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't have the correct components to de-scent, heal dryness, or deal with unwanted hitchhikers. At Pets Etc., we stock a range of dog grooming supplies that satisfy your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking good.

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 right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Some dogs grow dense undercoats while others have virtually no undercoat whatsoever. All coats require the correct kind of brush to minimize pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. Your dog may take pleasure in a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and require the lightest of touches. If you're uncertain of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our professionals at Pets Etc. in Plainfield. Stop in or give us a call at (815) 439-1919 to discuss the kind of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the most effective for your dog.
