Grooming a Bullmastiff is quick and easy thing. Tips.
Bullmastiffs are very strong, friendly, devoted, protective and
excellent guard dogs. They are able to hold off intruders exerting
huge power and physical force. They are safe around children and
enjoy playing with them. It is intelligent breed, but needs
training. Another good feature of this dog that it has easy grooming
regimen. It will be enough if once a month you will make general
grooming and every 8 to 12 weeks full grooming of your Bullmastiff.
You can hear that the Bullmastiff is a "wash and wear" breed. It is
true. Their short coats don't need a lot of care, still it will be
very good if you do a quick daily brushing to remove dead hair and
keep their coats shiny. Like all dogs, this breed requires proper
and regular cleaning of ears and teeth. Do not forget about their
toenails they should be kept short. If you forget about these areas
this may lead to ear infections, flattened pasterns, splayed feet
and expensive tooth removal. Please, mind that.
What you will need for Grooming:
- scissors
- rubber brush
- conditioner and shampoo
- talcum powder
- cotton pads
- eye make-up remover
Step-by-step-instruction:
- Scissors will help you to clip the dog's whiskers if it is
needed.
- During the bath remove extra shed hair by brushing the dog's
coat with a rubber brush. It is not that difficult 'cause
Bullmastiffs don't shed very much hair.
- Shampoo your dog and then apply a final coat conditioner. It
improves your dog's general appearance. Rub it gently into the
coat of your dog and brush it in as evenly as you can. To
prevent the skin problems of your pet we recommend to shampoo
the dog not very often.
- When drying a coat brush it with a hound brush.
- Do not forget to clean dog's furrows. Apply eye make-up
remover on a cotton pad and clean thoroughly the furrows of your
pet.
- After the bath dry dog's furrows. To prevent skin irritation
apply talcum powder within the furrows.
- Cut the dog's nails regularly and check his feet often to make
sure they are in good condition.
We hope these tips will help you to take care of your Bullmastiff.
Your dog will pay you back with love and devotion for proper care of
him.
