Grooming a Corgi
when you are done take them to a
grooming table and proceed to get all
that undercoat and dead hair out I put a
product called cowboy magic onto the
coat it will help loosen the coat up and
help your comb glide through as you comb
them out
[Music]
Billie Jean is currently not shedding so
she will be an easy groom today
[Music]
[Music]
next I use a dryer to fully dry the coat
not everyone has this tool but a
hairdryer can be used as an alternative
just make sure you’re using cool air
[Music]
if you don’t have a blow-dryer allow
your dog’s coat to air dry before you
start combing it’s easier on both you
and the dog while blow-drying keep the
blow-dryer from being used directly on
their feet or head Billie Jean has been
growing too many times so she’s used to
it
but Corky’s will light the dryer
sometimes I put a muzzle on to calm them
and to keep myself from being nipped at
[Music]
another important tips in grooming your
dog is that they stand for you it will
make your job
grooming easier and it will help be a
good control point for your dog
[Music]
this will help by blowing out that extra
coat and save you time it will also help
you see what’s in their skin such as
please hot spots and things that may be
stuck in their coat from hiking this is
preventive care that will keep you away
from the vet I have three favorite
products a greyhound comb a slicker and
this boar bristle and nylon phone I am
going to start with my gray Hong Kong
and follow the way the hair lays some
other brushes that will help our pin
brushes and rakes
[Music]
hold the head up as you come through the
front and be cautious of the ears they
have a lot of loose skin here around the
neck so I pull up on some of it to allow
my comb to glide that’s what you’re
looking for that riding action
when combing their underside you can
pull the lake forward or help them lay
down just be careful of sensitive parts
as you comb the underside
[Music]
check their armpits because this is
where you will see redness from
allergies or some kind of irritation
from a dog harness when I get to their
pants I like to part it separate it and
then comb it out when I’m done I put the
leg down a little bit and reverse home
hopping reverse combing assures me I’m
getting all that dead hair out now I’m
going to show you how you can use that
slicker this works really well on nappy
and short hair such as puffy fur and
their legs and feet
[Music]
[Music]
once you finish we will grab our boar
bristle and nylon brush and just finish
it out make all the Colt lay back down
[Music]
finally we will use this product called
mushers cream this will help moisten the
top pads and protect their feet be aware
of the temperature your dog feed are
exposed to hot and cold temperatures can
burn the bottoms of their feet apply a
little glob of it and rub it in
[Music]
that’s part two I recommend call me on a
weekly basis
