The Importance of Selecting the Best Shampoo for Your Pup:
You may be lured to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The issue is, human-grade shampoo isn't developed for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have special hair and skin needs that call for shampoos and conditioners with certain formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or even dry coat cleaners for the times when you can't give your dog a complete 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 really need coat products that are developed to deal with these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't include the correct components to de-scent, heal dryness, or deal with unwanted hitchhikers. At Three Tails Parlor and Pantry, we stock a variety of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking great.
Dog coats come in a variety of textures with hair follicles varying from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's crucial to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Some dogs grow thick undercoats while others have almost no undercoat at all. All coats require the correct kind of brush to decrease pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin damage. 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 Three Tails Parlor and Pantry in Columbia. Stop in or give us a call at (618) 281-9900 to discuss the type of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the very best for your dog.
