Groom-Out

A groom-out is the process of removing the undercoat from dogs with a double, combination, or heavy coat. Usually this undercoat is not effectively removed with simple brushing or combing, as these focus primarily on removing hair and debris from the top layer of fur. 

A groom-out of your dog helps facilitate the growth of healthy new hair, the regulation of body temperature, stops matting and discomfort, and helps reduce the amount of fur your pet sheds around your home. 

The process involves a de-shedding treatment and conditioning treatment, with specialty grooming techniques. The finish leaves the dog soft and fluffy, and the use of thinning scissors helps shape and refine the coat.

What you should know

 It's less than ideal to shave a double coat. Although the scientific evidence is still out, anecdotally groomers generally agree that it takes a very long time for a double coat to recover from shaving, if it recovers at all.

 Double-coated dogs that are compacted (that is, have a tight, matted undercoat) might still need shaving. Although it isn't ideal to shave a double coat, shaving it may be the lesser of evils as leaving it matted is very uncomfortable and painful. We always try to avoid this, but please keep it in mind if you know your dog is in this condition.

Benefits:

- Prevents knots and matting
- Ventilates the coat assisting the prevention of over-heating
- Facilitates healthy hair growth and stimulates hair follicles
- Removes loose hair and debris
- Encourages blood circulation
- Spreads natural oils, helping protect hair and skin


Directions:

Use the brush in the direction of the hair growth. You'll notice the brush has "L" shaped pins; these hook on to the knots! Therefore, you should only brush in a downwards motion (towards the handle) rather than side-to-side or up. Make sure the pins are penetrating deep into the coat, brushing the undercoat and hair near the skin. If the hair is too dense, part the hair so you can see the skin and brush right down near the base. Do not apply too much pressure to avoid irritating the skin. 

 

Bonus Tips

Short, frequent strokes are best.

Your attitude is important! Remaining calm, serious, and in control will result in a positive outcome.

Frequent brushing can be the difference between a pet that likes brushing or sees brushing as a part of life vs a pet that dislikes it.

Give your pet a treat and praise after brushing so they want to be brushed again.

Brush your pet after swimming or getting wet as water tightens knots!

Tutorials for brushing can be found at Uncanny Animals social media.

This is a miracle tool for paw-parents of breeds with sufficient undercoat! The Coat King has uniquely ground teeth which makes the removal of dead hair, undercoat and knots quick and easy. To use, apply to a dry coat and with light pressure, comb out in the direction of hair growth. As you do this, the straight hair passes through the teeth and the fluffy undercoat is removed. Not only does it remove the thick undercoat giving much relief to your dog, it creates a light outer coat and seriously decreases the amount of hair loss deposited around your home. Thank me later x
