Brushing your dog’s fur

How often do you brush your dog’s fur? What kind of brush do you recommend? I haven’t tried to do it before but I read that it can help make your dog’s fur shiny.

Brushing your dog's fur is good for him. You'll remove old hair,
massage him and like you said it will look better in the end.
What breed do you have ? Because some breeds should be
brushed more often than other breeds. It depends on the fur
( long, short, thick, curled ... ). The type of brush also depends
on the fur.

It is also good for checking your dog's health. When you brush him you can notice bugs, skin changes and injuries. It is fun for the dog and good for his health. Very good combination

I have a shih tzu at home and she has a long and a little bit wavy fur. What kind of brush would work for her? I am afraid to brush her fur she might lose a lot of fur and I don’t want that to happen.

Wow, cessy you have a Shih Tzu at home! I wanted to have that breed of dog too. I think dogs hair eventually grow back and it's natural to lose some hair whenever you brush it. They even lose and left some hair on the sofa so it's really natural just don't get too tight.

I just don’t want my baby to lose her hair. What I love most about her is her nice hair because she looks so cute whenever I put on some cute clips.
