At Kinga's Dog Grooming in Edinburgh, we understand that dog shedding can be a significant concern for many pet owners.

Here are some effective de-shedding techniques to help you manage your furry friend's loose hair.

Regular Grooming:

One of the most effective ways to control shedding is through regular grooming. This includes brushing and combing to remove dead hair before it falls out. We recommend using the right type of brush for your dog's coat typ​​e.

Bathing Your Dog:

Regular baths help remove loose fur and dirt, significantly reducing the amount of hair shed around the house. Use shedding control shampoos for the best result​s.

De-shedding Tools:

Investing in quality de-shedding tools can make a huge difference.

These tools are designed to remove the undercoat while leaving the top coat intact and health​​y.

Nutrition and Supplements:

A healthy diet contributes to a healthy coat. Ensure your dog's diet is rich in essential fatty acids and nutrients that promote coat health. Supplements can also help reduce excessive shedding

Regular Vet Checkups:

Sometimes, excessive shedding can be a sign of underlying health issues. Regular checkups with your vet can help identify and address any health problems that might be causing abnormal shedding.

Remember, while shedding is a natural process for dogs, managing it effectively can make life more comfortable for both you and your pet.

At Kinga's Dog Grooming, we're here to help with professional grooming services that cater to your dog's specific needs.
