The Importance of Finding the Right Shampoo for Your Pup:

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

Think of the idea that your pup is ikely to roll in the garbage, get fleas or ticks, or get dry, scratchy patches, and it soon becomes obvious why you really need coat products that are manufactured to deal with these problems. Human-grade shampoo won't contain the proper ingredients to de-scent, repair dryness, or get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. At Barkley's Pet Market, we offer a range of dog grooming supplies that meet your needs to keep your dog smelling great and looking great.

Dog coats come in an array of textures with hair follicles ranging from pin straight to tight curls. Therefore, it's important to use the appropriate brushes and combs for your dog's coat. Several dogs grow thick undercoats while others have practically no undercoat at all. All coats require the right kind of brush to reduce pulling out healthy hair and stop skin injury. Your dog may enjoy a good scratching with the brush, or they may be thin-skinned and need the lightest of touches. If you're not exactly sure of what types of brushes are best for the job, don't hesitate to ask our experts at Barkley's Pet Market in Hardy. Stop in or give us a call at (540) 346-2277 to discuss the type of coat and particular issues your dog has. We'll show you what brushes and combs are the most effective for your dog.
