To give your dog a proper bath, it's essential to follow the following 7 steps:
Brushing: Before you begin washing your dog, it's imperative to thoroughly brush their coat. Choose a brush that suits your dog's specific needs. Bathwater tends to tighten knots in the fur, making detangling more difficult after cleaning. Removing knots before wetting the dog is not only more comfortable for them but also reduces post-bath brushing time.
First Dog Shampoo: After brushing, move on to the first dog shampoo. In addition to its cleaning role, this first shampoo is designed to degrease the dog's coat. A versatile professional dog shampoo, such as the "all coat" variety, is ideal for this step.
Our expert tip: Use a specific brush for bathing to evenly distribute the shampoo. Apply the shampoo to the brush rather than directly on the coat, making it easier to spread the product across the entire coat without overloading it.
Second Dog Shampoo: Once you've rinsed the first shampoo, it's time for the second! Now that the dog's coat is clean and degreased, the second dog shampoo will nourish the coat. Opt for a more nourishing professional dog shampoo tailored to your dog's specific needs.
Rinsing: Rinsing is a crucial step. Make sure to thoroughly rinse the entire dog's coat, paying attention not to neglect areas like the belly or armpits, which may sometimes be insufficiently rinsed, retaining shampoo residue.
Applying Care: Apply care, such as a dog conditioner before drying or a detangling lotion after drying. This will nourish the dog's coat once again, making it easier to detangle and giving it a silky appearance.
Our expert tip: Don't hesitate to massage the coat while applying the shampoo or care for better absorption.
Drying: Once these steps are completed, start by drying your dog with a towel or robe. If possible, use a dryer and/or blower to prevent excessive moisture in the coat and reduce odors.
Brushing: Finally, to achieve a perfect coat, brush your dog's coat to detangle knots and add volume.
