Instructions
Use blending shears to trim or neaten the dog's appearance. If hair appears uneven to you, then go over the coat lightly with shears so that it looks natural and even. This coat is meant to be somewhat rugged, not dainty or well-trimmed. Don't over-style the coat or clip it too short.
Brush and comb the coat once a week at least with a natural bristle brush and a metal comb. In general, this breed sheds very little hair or none at all.
Trim hair in the corners of the eyes with scissors if it has grown too long. Get someone to help you with this, as it can be extremely dangerous. Have them hold the dog's head gently, but firmly, and be sure that the scissors you're using aren't too sharp.
