Grooming
Grooming requirements are minimal on Doodles. Many owners trim their dogs themselves occasionally just to keep them looking neat and clean.
Since they love water, bathing them is not a chore! A great shampoo for your Doodle is: Touch of Mink “MinkSheen 4 in 1 Shampoo”. Info and link below.
The great thing about Doodles, whether low shed or non-shed, seem in most instances fully compatible with allergy sufferers.
If you’ll be taking your doodle to the groomer for hair cuts, you’ll just need a brush, comb and shampoo for regular grooming.
For more information on grooming your doodle go to Goldendoodle.com.
Goldendoodle.com also has information on ear care.
Some groomer recommended products:
Oval pin brush:
Chris Christensen Systems’ Show Dog Brush. Three custom designed pin brushes for a variety of coat lengths, textures and fullness.
Great for puppies since a wooden pin brush represents the safest and gentlest way to delicately separate loosely tangled hairs and it’s gentle on the skin. If you’re looking at other brands, a good test is to brush your own arm to make sure it’s a smooth feel and doesn’t scratch your skin.
Many groomers recommend a T slicker brush for adult doodles. You can find information on all grooming supplies on Goldendoodle.com.
