Grooming Your Havanese
Whether you show
or not your Havanese will need to be Groomed Bathed and
Nails, Ears and Foot Pads maintained.
I've put this into
several sections - Click on the link to go to each
section. Not all sections completed yet.
Grooming time and
coat loss:
It will depend on
how rough your dog plays and whether they are in bushes,
mud, twigs etc, but for the show dog this has been my
experience with a full coated dog going through coat
changes
-
Brush your dog
every day it takes you 10 minutes.
-
Brush every two
days about 20 minutes, you will do some de-matting
and lose a little coat, primarily undercoat
-
Three days can
take 45 minutes more mats and coat loss - undercoat
but also expect to lose ear coat due to mats and
some top coat
-
Once a week can
take an hour to 1 1/2 hour, you will lose undercoat
and have some very large mats to deal with and start
to get breakage on top coat
