Grooming

keeping your pug looking fabulous

During the shedding season, Pugs will shed even if they have a short coat. To keep your house free of hair and minimize shedding, brush your pet regularly using a grooming mitt or a soft bristle brush. Coat health is enhanced by brushing because it stimulates the skin, increases circulation, and disperses natural oils.

It takes extra care to keep a Pug's endearing wrinkles in good repair. When these creases collect dirt and sweat, it may irritate or infect the skin. Be cautious not to hurt your Pug as you gently wipe away face wrinkles with a moist cloth or specialist wipes. Preventing skin concerns requires meticulously drying the creases after washing.

Pugs usually don't need to be bathed too often since doing so might dry up their skin and remove their coat's natural oils. You should give your Pug a wash every two to three months, or more often if they are very stinky or unclean. Rinse well to avoid residue buildup and use a gentle dog shampoo that won't bother their skin.

If you want your Pug to be mobile and comfortable, you must clip its nails regularly. Their stride and comfort might be negatively impacted by overgrown nails. Avoid cutting too near to the quick, the blood artery inside the nail, while trimming your Pug's nails every few weeks. Consult a vet or experienced groomer for advice if you're still confused.

Regular inspection and cleaning of Pug ears is necessary to avoid infections, dirt, and wax accumulation. Gently wipe the outside of their ears with a moist cotton swab or an ear cleaning specifically designed for that purpose.

Because of their large size, Pugs' eyes are more likely to have problems including dryness, inflammation, or infection. Gently wipe their eyes with a moist, clean towel to keep them clean. Talk to your vet if you see redness, severe tearing, or any other issues with your pet's eyes.
