Poodle coats (purebred and mixed alike) require a lot of care and attention to remain healthy. But did you know that…

…giving a poodle a bath at home can increase matts in their coat! Because the poodle coat is curly it retains more water and takes longer to dry. If the coat is not blow-dried and brushed straight after time spent in the tub it knots more easily resulting in matts. So be sure to commit to the bath, dry and brush if freshening up your poodle at home or instead invest in regular trips to a qualified groomer each season.
