A pet is part of the family and it is therefore very important that you take good care of its fur, as it is what protects it from the cold, scratches and other types of damage.
One of the best care you can give your furry friend is to buy a suitable brush, as this way you will avoid damaging its skin when you are cleaning it, but what is the best brush?
If you are asking yourself this question then keep reading this article! At Lulu’s Way we will give you some tips to choose the right brush for your pet.
Pay attention to your pet’s hair type
Whether you have a dog or a cat, your pet can have different types of fur depending on its breed. It can be hard, short or long. The first consists of very dense short undercoats and is mainly found in fox terriers and some dachshunds.
On the other hand, short fur is characterized by having a length similar to that of hard hair but a softer texture. German shepherds and Labradors usually have this type of fur, as do Siamese cats.
Long hair is found in many breeds of dogs and cats, so it is important that you use Lulu’s Way products when bathing them to give your furry friends a deeper and more effective cleaning. Also, pay attention to the type of your pet’s fur will allow you to know what type of brush is ideal for them.
Diferentes cepillos para perros, para cada tipo de pelo
Una vez que hayas identificado el tipo de pelaje que tiene tu mascota debes escoger el cepillo que le resulte más adecuado, pues escoger uno que le resulte incómodo no solo puede hacer que tu amigo peludo se desespere a la hora de cepillarlo, sino que también puede causarle irritaciones y dolores en la piel.
En Lulu’s Way nos preocupamos mucho por la salud y confort de tus amigos peludos, por ello te mostraremos algunos tipos de cepillos ideales para cada tipo de pelaje:
Brushes for hard coats
Because some dogs with wire-haired coats have sensitive skin, it is recommended that you use rubber brushes or deshedding gloves to remove any hair that is about to fall out, so that you can pet and brush your dog at the same time.
Brushes for short hair
If your pet has short hair, you can use brushes with metal bristles, but you should make sure that the tips are rounded so as not to scratch your pet when you use it to untangle its fur.
You can also use brushes with plastic bristles to brush your pet after bathing it, thus avoiding causing discomfort when its skin is wet.
Dog brushes for long hair
Although a conventional brush can be used on long-haired dogs and cats, at Lulu’s Way we recommend that for this type of fur you use brushes with slightly longer bristles to be able to untangle their hair more easily and combs to organize their fur.
As you can see, choosing a suitable brush for your pet is a fairly simple process, so go ahead and follow the advice we gave you at Lulu’s Way to make choosing one easier!
