I have a german shepherd, and I'm wondering how often I should brush him. Hes not a full breed and has what is beleived a bit of a hound mix in him.

Could anyone help me and my awesome dog Lucky? Don't make me post a sad puppy eyes pic!

I try to brush my dog's hair everyday but sometimes I get lazy cause I'm really tired from work. He's a Lab so I don't worry about hair tangles. I brush his hair once or twice a week at the most.

Everything that I have read says that most dogs should be brushed daily and if not then every other day. It helps to keep down shedding as well as keeps the under coat of the dog healthy and the hair on the dog well oiled.

If you have the time, you should brush your dog daily. It's a very bonding thing to do. It's a massage for the dog, if you have the right brush. It also reduces hair, and it stimulates the oils in a dog's skin. There are so many benefits to brushing your dog's coat. It's something that is bonding, as well as healthy.

It is best to brush their teeth every day.You can also try specific chew treats to help clean the teeth. My fosters teeth are always very nice and pearly white from chewing!

It is best to brush them everyday. If you get in the habit of doing it, you will be more likely to keep doing it. I brush Charlie's teeth a couple times a week.I use a kids toothbrush.
