There is nothing better than having a well-groomed bulldog. And while grooming
your favorite canine companion is a fairly easy task, you can still make your job a
lot easier by following these simple tips.

3. 1. Get everything ready beforehand.

Have all the grooming essentials ready on your bathing station before putting a single drop of water
on your dog. Have a veterinarian-approved shampoo (preferably one containing ketokonazole),
mineral oil and cotton balls, washcloth or sponge, towels, as well as some brush and combs for your
bulldog’s coat and for the areas between his toes and nails. You should also have a bathing tether
and a rubber tub mat to hold your pet comfortably in place while bathing.

4. 2. Brush before a bath.

Avoid the trouble of having to
deal with hard to remove mats by
brushing your dog before
bathing.

5. 3. Prep your dog.

After giving your pal a
good brushing, apply
mineral oil in your dog’s
eyes to protect them
from suds and put a
small piece of cotton in
the ear canals to
prevent water from
getting inside. Make
sure that you use the
right size to prevent it
from slipping down the
ear canals.

6. 4. Use warm water.

Always use warm water when
bathing your dog. Fill the sink or
tub with enough water (up to
your dog’s knee level) before you
bring in your dog to prevent
stressing him out.

7. 5. Keep a positive attitude.

Don’t lose your temper if your
dog resists going into the water.
Instead, lead him into the water
with as little drama as possible,
offer him a treat along the way,
and get to work.

8. 6. Give your pal a thorough drying.

Squeeze out excess water and use absorbent
towels to dry your dog’s coat. Use a blow
dryer to speed things up but remember to
set it on the cooler setting to avoid skin
injuries. Keep your pal away from drafts and
don’t let him outside until the hair is
completely dry.
