Instructions

    • 1

      Reduce long or excessive amounts of feathering. Use thinning shears to clip coat hair that won't lie flat with regular combing.

    • 2

      Clip around the anus area using a blade. Be very careful and make sure you don't press down on the skin.

    • 3

      Bathe the dog with a mild soap or shampoo.

    • 4

      Use a force dryer after the bath to get rid of extra water. Let the dog dry naturally after that without fluff drying it.

    • 5

      Pin brush the dog's coat, brushing with the grain after the coat has dried. This should give the coat a sleek and shiny look that compliments this breed. Follow by brushing with a natural bristle brush to distribute the hair's natural oils throughout your dog's coat.
