In Labrador
care grooming is important and can become a huge task if you take it all on at
once. While many owners set aside one day to do everything you might want to consider
smaller sessions for the well being of both yourself and your Labrador.
Labradors
are very energetic and excitable and expecting them to be still for any long period
of time is going to be a huge task for you and it can be stressful on your Labrador.
The most important expert grooming tip for your Labrador is to consider his emotional
well being along with his physical well being.
Make Grooming Easier on
Both of You
Labradors are curious hunters by nature and your Labrador is
likely to end up exploring many things you would prefer he had left alone. Labrador
care for an active dog can make for a good deal of work. According to expert grooming
tips, brushing at least once a week is always a good idea but to save yourself
some extra work take the time each day to check your Labradors coat for any foreign
objects. Labradors will often pick up burrs and other objects that can become
imbedded not only in their coat but also in this skin. If you catch it right away
it will save you’re a good deal of work and your Labrador will be protected from
unwanted discomfort.
Eyes
A Labrador often has trouble with keeping
his eyes clear and on a regular basis you will find a bit of goo around his eyes.
One of the expert grooming tips includes taking a damp cotton ball and wiping
it away one or two days a week. In this way, your Labradors eyes will remain clear
and the goo won’t become crusty and irritate its eyes. The eyes are one of the
most forgotten areas in Labrador care and often the Labrador pays for this with
eye infection or just basic irritation. Make sure to always check your Labradors
eyes when grooming.
Teeth
Dental cleaning is a must in Labrador
care and it is in the best interest of your sense of smell. Labradors can have
some very strong and unpleasant breath if you ignore the need for brushing his
teeth. There are many items on the market that can be used on a regular basic
in addition to brushing their teeth. Some grooming experts recommend adding some
products to their drinking water to help reduce build up on your Labradors teeth
therefore making your job shorter and easier. Good grooming is essential to
your Labradors care but it does not have to be a traumatic even for either of
you if you keep it simple and do some minor maintenance in between regular grooming.
Once you are a pro at grooming and caring for your Labrador, you can then turn
your attention to breeding
