Need regular grooming services?
There is nothing quite as eye-catching as the sight of a snow-white dog walking down the street. However, keeping Snowball looking her best can be a challenge as anyone who owns a white-haired dog can tell you. Since Snowball is still a puppy that likes to get into everything, keeping her coat nice and white is going to take a bit of hard work on your side. Keep in mind that food, urine, and tear stains need to be cleaned up immediately or they could become permanent stains. The good news is that dirt, in general, does not cause staining and regular bathing will keep Snowball clean.Â
Keep in mind, you should never over-bathe your dog. This can strip Snowball's hair and skin of their natural oils that protect them. Also note that there are special "bleaching" shampoos on the market, made just for white dogs. Most of these shampoos have a blue or violet tone to them. These shampoos are designed to gently remove stains and restore the brightness to Snowball's coat.Â
Keeping Snowball looking her best takes a lot of work. In fact, it is a daily task, as you should be wiping her face using a canine wipe daily, using a tear stain remover, wiping her body down with a baby wipe, and, of course, giving her regular baths using a whitening shampoo. No matter how much hard work keeping her coat nice and white might seem, when you sit back, and she gives you that "I look great!" look, you'll know it was all worthwhile!
