Ear Cleaning: Cleaning the ears of your dog is a simple chore. With the dog being a long-haired breed, problems can arise if ears nor cleaned regularly. The hair in the ears of a dog will grow long, knot up, mat and eventually interfere with proper functioning of the dog's ear canal. Infection of your dog's ears can result.
Use Life's Abundance Ear Cleaner:
You will need a bottle or can of ear powder easily obtained through pet supply manufacturers. Squirt the powder directly into the ears of your dog. The hair will become dry and brittle and is easily plucked out with your fingers. Pluck the hair out of your dog's ears with a quick, firm motion until the ears of your dog look clean. You can also use a hemostat to pluck the hair out of your dog's ears.
Be sure to purchase ear canker powder as it has the additional benefit of helping to control canker and ear mites in your dog. Swab your dog's ears gently with a cotton swab dipped in mineral oil or rubbing alcohol.
Nail trimming: Keeping your dog's nails trimmed is important. Without regular trimming, your dog's nails may grow so long that they actually throw the dog off his natural balance and act as a source of irritation. Neglecting to trim your dog's nails also detracts from the look of an otherwise well-groomed dog.
Nail trimmers and techniques: Guillotine type nail trimmers are the best to use on your dog. Hold the trimmers vertically. Grasp the foot of the dog firmly, hold the leg up towards you, carefully trim each nail of your dog. It may sometimes be unnecessary to trim the nails on the hind feet of your dog as they seem to grow much slower than the fore feet.
If dewclaws are present on your dog, trim the dewclaws as well. The shorter you keep your dog's nails, the better, and frequent trimming will help tighten the feet and improve the dog's balance. Be careful about the "quick." The "quick" is a vein that can be easily observed in most white and light-colored dog when the toenails are "white." The "quick" is more difficult to identify in toenails of darker colored dog. More often that not, these are black rather than white in the darker colored dog.
Nail bleeding: If the nails of your dog bleed after trimming, or if you trim them to close to the "quick," there is no need for alarm. Always have on hand one of the antiseptic coagulants which you can purchase through any pet supply manufacturer for your dog. These substances will stop quickly any bleeding. Using a cotton swab dab a little of the powder on the bleeding toenail of your dog and hold it with a little pressure for a few seconds. The bleeding should stop quickly.
The best time to trim the nails or clean the ears is before you bath your dog so that all traces of blood or powder will be washed away. However, the nails of your dog will be softer right after bathing.
Nail grinding: A finishing touch in trimming nails is the use of a nail grinder for your dog. A nail grinder will polish off the rough edges of the dog's nails. The Oster Corporation makes a nail grinder favored by many professional groomers and handlers. Caution is advised when using a nail grinder on your dog's nails. If the dog bends his head during the process, some part of the fringes could get caught in the grinding wheel causing the dog considerable pain.
If your dog objects strenuously to nail grinding, it is advisable to not force the issue since grinding is mostly for a cosmetic effect.
