The Basics of Training Your Dog

Choosing a Dog Shampoo

As a dog owner, one of the more unpleasant recurring tasks in your life is the requirement to bathe your dog.

​Depending on your breed and the amount of outdoor time your dog has, this can happen as frequently as once a week, which makes the shampoo you choose to use on your dog extremely important.

At the Pet Store

The pet store likely has an entire aisle of dog shampoos that can be difficult to choose from. www.salespider.com/b-382167833/mammoth-lending

​You might begin to feel a bit overwhelmed with the large selection of seemingly similar shampoos but there are differences between them and the shampoo you choose will have serious effects on the way your dog looks. www.brownbook.net/business/40945632/mammoth-lending

Some dogs, on the other hand, have dry, itchy, sensitive skin and normal shampoos can aggravate those conditions and make the dog uncomfortable and unattractive.

Dogs

For this situation, you can purchase a dog shampoo that soothes the skin of the dog and moisturizes the skin to keep it from becoming flaky. www.elocal.com/profile/mammoth-lending-18802774#!/tab=about

​These shampoos tend to have more natural ingredients and less chemicals.

Color of Your Dog

If your dog is white or cream colored, you'll need to get a shampoo designed for light colored dogs.

This is because dogs that have light colored fur tend to get dingy, especially when they spend a lot of time outdoors.

They need a whitening shampoo to keep them from becoming too dingy.

Hair Length

​Long haired dogs have a tendency towards knots and tangles and there are shampoos that are designed to help prevent and reduce the amount of tangling in the dog's fur, which can save you valuable time when you're brushing your dog.

If your dog lacks any of those issues, you can get a basic simple shampoo without any special ingredients.

​There are countless simple shampoos and you can choose any of those if your dog has no special issues and you can choose whichever shampoo you like and fits your budget.

Lots of Types to Choose from

There are many different kinds of dog shampoo and you need to take into consideration the needs of your dog when you're choosing which to purchase and use.
