Some breeds need their coats trimmed every few months, while others can go a bit longer. How often you get your dog’s coat trimmed will depend on lots of things – the lifestyle you lead, how often they get out and about, their age, coat type, breed and more. For breeds such as German Shepherds and spaniels with medium-length hair, you may need to visit a professional groomer to get their coat trimmed or stripped a few times a year. Depending on your dog’s breed, you may also need to visit a professional groomer to get their coat trimmed or stripped a few times a year. However, some different short hair breeds may need their undercoat to be trimmed. Dogs with an undercoat or a lot of excess hair may benefit from hand stripping, which is a process where the undercoat of a dog’s hair is removed using a hand stripping tool.
