Grooming is not as troublesome as you might expect,
but daily brushing of the long coat with a stiff bristle brush is important.
Brush with the grain first, then lift the hair with a comb, against the
grain, lay it back in place. Bathe or dry shampoo only when necessary.
The dense undercoat is shed heavily twice a year in spring and fall.
A good flea and tick treatment is important. Some have even shaved
the dog in the summer time to help keep the dog cooler. Click here to return
