The vast majority of Samoyed dogs "innovate" and "shed their hair profusely" every day, but their hair is so thick that you can't feel it. When spring and summer turn, many people complain that Samoyed dogs lose hair like snowflakes. This is because when the weather is hot, Samoyed dogs also need to change into summer clothes, and the long hair used for insulation needs to be replaced by short hair, so the hair change speed accelerates. This situation may last for about two months. Let’s teach you how to take care of Samoyed’s hair.

When combing your hair, in addition to paying attention to the normal shedding and shedding, the most important thing is to eliminate hair knots. Hair knots are most likely to occur on the chin, soles of feet, abdomen, buttocks, and under the ears. That's because you didn't comb it out immediately after taking a bath or licking your hair to wet it. The hair is rich in sebum, and there's also an electrostatic reaction caused by frequent sitting, lying down, and friction with the ground. You can use a hard needle comb for long-haired Samoyed dogs, and a soft needle comb for short-haired Samoyed dogs.

Combing hair not only cleans body hair, but also promotes skin metabolism. During the shedding period in early spring, it will also promote the growth of new hair. If your body hair becomes knotted, it will become a breeding ground for parasites and make you susceptible to skin diseases. Therefore, brush the Samoyed once a day starting from the puppy. When brushing, the combing sequence can start from the easy-to-comb areas on the back, then the limbs, abdomen, neck, head, and under the ears on both sides, and slowly comb part by part. After combing it smooth, do it again in the opposite direction.

When you encounter hair knots, use a coarse-grit flat comb to grasp the roots of the knots to avoid straining the skin, and then use a fine-grit flat comb to comb them out easily. When you encounter too many knots, too dense, and as thick as a carpet, you can spray it with easy-to-comb essence before combing it. If it still doesn't work, you can cut it off directly to prevent the Samoyed dog from resisting due to pain and fearing grooming from now on. You can first comb against the hair to bring out the garbage and other things, and then comb along the hair to clean out the garbage and fallen body hair. Parents may wish to try the method introduced above. I believe it will be easy to get started and you will become a grooming beautician in an instant.
