Grooming Tips

  • 1The light silky coat mats less than other long-coated breeds but still needs regular brushing.
  • 2Corded coats are an option but require significant commitment to form and maintain properly.
  • 3Puppy cuts are popular for pet owners who want the breed without intensive grooming.
  • 4Brush thoroughly before bathing - water tightens existing mats making them harder to remove.
  • 5Use a conditioning spray when brushing to prevent static and breakage.
