Grooming Procedure<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Equipment needed:<\/em> A pin brush and a medium-toothed comb.
\nBreed tip: The coat should not be trimmed \u2014 any loose hair will be brushed or combed out easily if regular grooming is carried out.<\/p>\n

\n
• Brush through the coat using a pin brush.<\/li>\n
• Comb through with a medium-toothed comb, making sure all tangles are removed.<\/li>\n
• Next, check the dog’s skin. If you notice dandruff, do not dismiss it as dry skin \u2014 a small mite could be responsible, which causes the skin to scale. If so, you will need a special veterinary-prescribed shampoo.<\/li>\n
• Now, bathe and shampoo the dog (a protein-enriched or tea tree and lavender shampoo work wonders) and rinse well.<\/li>\n
• Apply a complementary conditioner.<\/li>\n
• Blow-dry the hair, brushing in the direction of the hair growth, not against it.<\/li>\n
• Check the dog’s eyes. If necessary, wipe with cotton batting soaked in an eye-cleansing solution.<\/li>\n
• Check inside the dog’s ears to ensure they are clean and free of wax. If necessary, apply a light dusting of canker powder.<\/li>\n
• Check the nails and cut if necessary. Also check under the feet, and trim out any excess hair between the pads.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Fairly easy to maintain the coat of an English Toy Spaniel with regular brushing. The coat is long, silky and straight. Slight waves are allowed, but the coat should never be curly. The legs, ears and tail are feathered profusely. Brush and comb your English Toy Spaniel every day, from early puppyhood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3081,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"\n
