    Why Brush or Groom Your Alapaha Blue Blood Bulldog?

    Brushing also serves to help to spread healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, promoting a shining coat and helping dust to slide off the hair. This can also help to minimize the need to bath and therefore lower the occurrence of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Alapaha Blue Blood Bulldog dog are tasks that help to strengthen the positive connection bond between your dog and you. Brushing should be a pleasurable and relaxed experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Alapaha Blue Blood Bulldog

    How often to brush and groom your dog will depend upon each individual dog. Dogs tend to contrast in their need for brushing because of their coat type and length and also depending on their more recent activities.

    Dogs with short coats commonly require less brushing and grooming compared to dogs with medium to long haired coats as these longer coats can get tangles, mats and debris trapped in them more quickly.

    Some very short-haired dogs may not need standard 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may rather like to try a soft grooming glove to carefully remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Dogs should be brushed 'as required'. Owners should monitor the condition of their dog's coat, trying to find any tangles/mats or dullness which suggests they might need a brush. Grooming can take anything from a couple of minutes to a number of hours a week depending on your type of dog.
