Different types of pets and coats require different brushing techniques, so make sure you use the right tools for your pet’s specific needs.
How Often Should You Brush?
- Short-Haired Pets: Pets with short coats typically require brushing once a week to remove loose hairs and prevent matting.
- Long-Haired Pets: Pets with long coats, like Poodles or Persians, should be brushed daily to prevent tangles and mats.
