Poodle Grooming
Grooming is the most challenging part of owning a poodle.
Good grooming is important for all dogs, but it is absolutely
essential for poodles. A well-groomed Poodle will not only look
her best; good grooming helps prevent skin, coat, and dental and
other health problems. It is often said “Poodles are
non-shedding and hypo-allergenic.” Well, poodles do shed, but
the loose hair stays in the coat rather than falling out in the
house. In order to keep your poodles coat from becoming a matted
mess, you must brush and comb her several times a week. As for
being hypo-allergenic, many people with allergies have no
problems living with a poodle because the poodle does not
develop dander which is what actually causes the allergic
reaction. The hair of a poodle never stops growing; therefore a
full clipping every six to eight weeks is required. You can have
your poodle groomed by a professional or learn how to groom her
yourself.
