Grooming Instructions

Proper grooming is important for your Afghan Hound. Below are the steps to brush your dog:

Recommended Brushes:

Pin brush and a comb

Brushing Instructions:

Use a pin brush to gently remove tangles and mats. Follow up with a comb to maintain their long, silky coat.

Recommended Brushing Frequency:

Proper brushing frequency is essential to keep your Afghan Hound's coat healthy and free from mats or tangles. Generally, it's recommended to brush your Afghan Hound at least once a day. Afghan Hounds have long, flowing coats and may require daily brushing to prevent tangles and mats, maintaining their coat's shine and reducing shedding. However, keep in mind that some Afghan Hounds may require more frequent brushing, especially during shedding seasons.
