Grooming Your Dog

It's very important that you groom even your short haired Pit Bull. But the great thing about APBT's is that they only require minimal grooming. You need to make sure that you bath the dog regularly; I'd suggest twice a month for inside dogs and either once a week or everyother week for outside dogs. You don't want to over bathe the dog.

Grooming Your Dog and Dog Grooming Kits

You want to clip the dog's nails regularly, starting when you get the dog. I'd say maybe once a week trim up the nails of inside dogs. You don't want to be able to hear the dog's nails on hardwood or tile flooring.

I'd say that you want to take a flea comb to the dog at least once a week, more if you keep the dog outside more than 50% of the day. You want to use a flea and tick control to help keep fleas and ticks to a minimum.
