The Importance of Choosing the Right Shampoo for Your Dog:

You might be tempted to use human-grade shampoo on your dog for the sake of convenience. The issue is, human-grade shampoo isn't designed for use on anything other than your scalp and hair. Dogs have unique hair and skin needs that call for shampoos and conditioners with distinct formulations such as dry skin relief, insect-repelling properties, or perhaps dry coat cleansers for the times when you can't give your dog a complete bath.

Think about the idea that your dog is ikely to roll in the garbage, pick up fleas or ticks, or get dry, itchy spots, and it quickly becomes obvious why you should have coat products that are created to take on these challenges. Human-grade shampoo won't include the proper ingredients to de-scent, heal dryness, or eliminate unwanted hitchhikers. At Dog Day Afternoon, we stock a range of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling nice and looking fantastic.

Dog coats come in a range of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's vital to use the right brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Many dogs grow thick undercoats while others have practically no undercoat whatsoever. All coats need the best type of brush to decrease pulling out healthy hair and avoid skin injury. Your dog may appreciate 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 Dog Day Afternoon in Mascoutah. Stop in or give us a call at (618) 448-0374 to discuss the type of coat and certain issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the best for your dog.
