Sprollie Breed Maintenance
The Sprollie hybrid breed can have a coat which is either short or medium in length and can also be sparse or bushy. These dogs will look and feel best when brushed at least two or three times per week with extra focus being put on the areas behind the ears and at the top of the legs where the limbs meet the body. Bathe them as needed. Some other needs include brushing your dog’s teeth which will help to prevent tooth and gum decay as well as bad breath. This task should be done once or twice per week minimum, but the more often the better. The Sprollie should have their ears wiped clean once a week in order to prevent ear infections, and the nails should be trimmed regularly. The exact frequency of the nail clipping will depend on the dog, as well as their lifestyle. Because the Sprollie is such an active breed, the nails may not need to be trimmed as often as other breeds because they will get worn down naturally when the dog runs around and plays. On average, the nails should be checked once or twice per month.
