Control Dog Shedding

A familiar problem Dog owners ultimately run into is shedding. Nearly all of our furry pals Dogs and cats alike, can shed their coat throughout the year especially during the spring. Some breeds have thicker coats and may shed in greater quantities. It can turn out to be a very big nuisance when you house is coated in a layer of unwanted hair. While it is not likely that we will ever be able to stop Dog shedding completely, these tip's will help decrease loose hair and also remove the hair before it becomes an issue in your home.

One of the most effective ways to prevent dog shedding is simply to brush your pet on a daily basis. Daily brushings are the most effective way to keep your house free of hair. Brushing will make your dogs coat softer, healthier and not as likely to shed. Just brushing your dog will help keep the house clean and could also help with any allergies you might be suffering from due to loose hair around your home.

What you feed your dog has a lot to do with shedding. Believe it or not your dogs coat reflects what their diet is made of. High quality food is always preferred cause of easy to digest protein supply. A healthy diet will keep your dogs coat strong and beautiful for years to come.

This next piece of advise is more good sense than anything else. Give your dog a bath at least once a week using a delicate oatmeal shampoo. Oatmeal shampoo will clean and won't dry the skin and also rejuvenates your dogs coat. The formula incorporates vitamins A and E which are very beneficial for a healthy coat and you can get it in different scents. Just in case you were thinking your dog was going to be walking around smelling like oatmeal.

While it is true that dog shedding is a very big nuisance, with a consistent routine and some time you will notice yourself worrying less and less about dog hair on the couch. Hope this was helpful. Good Luck
