Topic Dog Boards / Showing / Beardie Coat
- By STARRYEYES Date 09.05.05 16:16 UTC
I have two beardies I dont show but still want to look after thier coats they are in good condition one only being 6 months but would be grateful for any advice on any natural products I could give them to enhance.I groom everyday and one thorough groom each week they dont have any knots and thier coats are smooth.
I feed them JWB but wondered if their was any supplements I should give .

thank you

Hi Roni
I'm afraid I can't really help you. I have Beardies, but don't give them any supplements. One of them is such a fussy eater, she can smell anything different a mile off. I don't groom every day, I do their beards every couple of days, a thorough groom once per week, wash their whites for shows, but very rarely give them an all over bath (lucky if it's once/twice per year). This seems to keep the outer coats in the correct harsh condition they should be.

Sorry I couldn't be of much help, but i'm sure someone will be along soon who can.

Hi Kay
Could you tell me the best way to keep a Beardies beard white - are there products to remove stains.  My Beardie is fed Naturediet

Thanks

Hi Sarah,
I am no expert on grooming, or keeping a Beardies white, white by any stretch of the imagination. I use a shampoo called Bright White (by Ring 5), when I bathe the whites for a show. IMO you shouldn't bath them too often, as it strips the natural protective oil from the coats. On the whites, if they are washed too often, they seem to actually get browner, quicker! I have known some people use a form of bleach!!!, but I never have. My Beardies don't have the whitest beards around, believe me!
