Chow Chow Grooming

The Chow Chow is a beautiful and independent breed of dog. Owning one comes with the responsibility of ensuring that their coat looks its best, as it is an important feature of the species. Regular grooming is essential for hygienic purposes as well as aesthetic reasons, so to properly care for your furry friend, make sure to brush them at least once per week. If their coat is particularly long or dense, then twice-weekly brushing should become part of your routine. To prevent the accumulation of dirt and tangles, it is sometimes necessary to trim their fur around sensitive areas such as the face and rear end. Trimming should be done by hand or with blunt-tipped scissors – never use a razor blade! Finally, ensure that they are bathed whenever they become visibly dirty to maintain healthy skin and fur.
