Instructions
Brush out the coat frequently with a slicker brush, pin brush or metal comb, as needed. Brushing regularly removes clumps of shed hair which can become stuck in the undercoat. The undercoat hair has a woolly, thick texture which only becomes more matted and tangled when wet, so always thoroughly comb out your Tibetan Spaniel's coat before a bath. They shed an average amount of hair, but once a year it should come out profusely in huge clumps.
Scissors stain hairs around the eyes. Tibetan Spaniels tend to leak from the eyes and the best solution is hair removal. Have a friend help you when doing this as it can be extremely dangerous. One of you should hold the dog's head firmly, but gently, to keep him from moving.
Clean all the crevices of the dog's face with a soft, moist cloth and put a small amount of powder on it afterwards. The powder helps absorb excess moisture and prevent skin irritation.
