Information Manuals & Books about Grooming Pet Dogs & Puppies
The amount of grooming a dog requires will depend on its coat. There are five basic types of coat: short coated, long coated, silky, non-shedding curly and wire coated.

Not all dogs will require daily grooming but if your dog enjoys being brushed there is certainly no harm in a daily brush.
Grooming is not only about brushing there at least four other areas that require any owners attention, Bathing, Nail Trimming, Ear care and Haircuts (often defined by breed type or owners preference)
Even if you want to leave this to a professional groomer you can get some useful information from the Grooming Books below.
