Schnug Breed Maintenance
The Schnug is relatively easy to maintain, they just require brushing every second or third day to keep their coats healthy and free from matting. A firm bristle brush or a comb will even out the coat and remove any shed hair. When bathing your dog, make sure you use a special dog shampoo which is kinder on their skin and retains the natural oils and weather resistance of the coat. Training young puppies to accept having their teeth brushed will save problems later on, just start with small sessions to get them used this new procedure. Another area to check is the ears, where the dirt and wax can build up and become infected leading to all sorts of health problems. Gently clean inside the ear with a soft damp cloth and dry the area afterwards to maintain good health. Your Schnug's nails may need clipping if they are too long although a slight trim once a month should be enough to keep them at the right length. Most dogs enjoy the grooming process, and it is a great time to check your dog for any sores, or infections as dogs never complain when they are in pain, they just keep it to themselves. Taking the time to care for your companion dog will be appreciated by them and they will lap up all the attention!
