  • The Chinese Crested Dog is hairless. It's skin is soft, smooth and sensitive
  • Bathing is a very important process as the skin needs to be kept clean to avoid infection
  • Place a mat and towel next to bath
  • Check the water temperature of the bath - ensure that a minimal amount of water is used

  • Gently clean your pet - be careful of delicate areas such as eyes and ears
  • Towel dry. Then gently massage a little oil or cream into the skin to keep it healthy

Some dogs do not need their nails trimmed as they are kept short by general activities. However, should your dog's nails become long then they should be trimmed. It is important to know exactly what you are doing, as cutting too deep into your Chinese Crested dog's nails can cause damage and pain. Written instruction is not enough as the risk of hurting your Chinese Crested is too high.

  • Your vet can help initially by demonstrating how to trim your dog's nails and supervise your first attempt
  • Spend some time touching your dog's paws and gently squeezing the area around the nails in order to familiarize them with this sensation
  • Seek advice from your vet about the most appropriate nail clippers for your pet
