GREAT GROOMING

We all want our pommie to look great.  Here are some neat
grooming tips that you can use to show your dog....

When brushing their hair, use a bristle brush or pin brush
without the knobs on the end that can damage a Pomeranians coat.

It helps to dampen the coat before brushing to help prevent
split ends. You can mix one ounce of conditioner in a spray bottle with
water to slightly wet the coat before brushing.

The Pomeranians long, luxurious coat is its claim to fame.
It can also be a great place to catch stickers, grass, or
pieces of stuff left over from when they go to the bathroom.
Some owners like to trim around the butt area to help
keep their dogs clean.

If you feel comfortable with it, you will need to clip your
Pomeranians nails about once a month. Be careful to avoid
the quick. This is something you might want to leave
for the groomer. If you do decide to take it on, there are
several different types of clippers made specifically for dogs.

Always brush your Pomeranian before bathing. This will help
avoid matting. After bathing, you might want to use a hair
dryer on a light or cool setting to dry his hair. Some
Pomeranians love this. Others will pitch a fit. Try it once
or twice and see if it is right for your dog. Blow-drying will
ensure that his coat is completely dry and will keep him
from catching cold.

I hope you can use these tips for your own pommie.  They will thank you for it!
