How to wash a dog in winter?
In winter a dog needs washing less. After dog washing we should dry dog coat carefully, especially if you plan to go walking soon. You way substitute dog washing by wiping with a clean (!) snow outside.
Dog grooming tips in winter: It is important to cut dog fur on paws between fingers to prevent snow sticking to it. Then dog fingers will attach closely to each other and a dog will not feel too cold. If you will not cut fur between fingers it will stick snow and dog paws will become cold very soon.
Warning! Place heating tools at the safe place to protect a dog from contacting with it, burns, falls of the heater and dangerous situations.
Dogs with kidney, heart diseases, diabetes, hormonal imbalance are the most sensitive to temperature differences.
