Regular grooming isn't just about looks — it's a health check opportunity.
Bathing frequency
Most dogs need a bath every 2-4 weeks. Cats usually don't need baths (they self-groom) unless particularly dirty or with skin issues.
Why brushing matters
Brushing:
- Removes loose fur, reduces shedding around the house
- Stimulates skin circulation
- Catches skin issues early (rashes, lumps, ticks)
- Strengthens trust with your pet
