How to Groom Wavy and Curly-Coated Dogs

Curly-coated dogs grow long curly hair with minimal undercoat and no noticeable shedding.  Dogs with wavy coats may shed profusely. These coat types are prone to matting all over. The coat is maintained by detangling, combing and trimming.  Most long-haired  pet dogs get their hair trimmed every 6 - 8 weeks. 

Curly-coated dog breeds include:

• Poodle and poodle mixes (e.g., goldendoodle, labradoodle, etc.)

• Bichon Frise

• Kerry Blue Terrier

• Bedlington Terrier
