Doberman Pinscher Dog Grooming Instruction - Brushing Hair and Coat
Most dog's hair and coats need some attention. The Doberman Pinscher dog grooming instruction for caring for your dog's hair or coat is as follows:

  • The Doberman Pinscher has a short, sleek, smooth, hard coat that doesn't require a lot of grooming to keep it looking nice and healthy.
  • Spend around 15 minutes per week thoroughly brushing your dog or puppy's coat
  • Try using a slicker brush as this will comb through your dog or puppy's hair easily
  • Grooming will help to reduce the amount of hairs around the house caused by shedding
  • Using a damp towel to rub your dog down will also help to remove loose or dead hairs
  • Begin at the head of your puppy or dog, following the direction of the hair growth. Take care when combing or brushing around delicate areas

  • Wash your dog or puppy when they are dirty or smell!
  • Gather bathing equipment and place bathing tools and shampoo near to bathing area
  • Place a mat and towel next to bath
  • Check the water temperature of the bath - ensure that a minimal amount of water is used
  • Gradually place the dog in the bath - be aware that this may frighten your pet
  • Gently shampoo your pet - be careful of delicate areas such as eyes and ears
  • Rinse shampoo and towel dry. Then brush the hair

Doberman Pinscher Dog Grooming Instruction - Trimming Nails
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 Doberman Pinscher dog's nails can cause damage and pain. Written instruction is not enough as the risk of hurting your Doberman Pinscher 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
