Grooming Instructions

Proper grooming is important for your American Bulldog. Below are the steps to brush your dog:

Recommended Brushes:

Bristle brush or rubber curry brush

Brushing Instructions:

When brushing your American Bulldog, be sure to use a gentle touch. Start by pressing the brush firmly into your dog’s skin to ensure the bristles reach the bottom of the coat. Bristle brushes and curry brushes are designed to be soft and should not harm your dog's skin when used correctly even when applying pressure. Use the brush to remove loose fur and maintain their short coat. Remember to always brush in the direction of the hair growth to prevent discomfort or potential skin and coat damage that can occur when brushing against the grain. Regular brushing can help reduce shedding and maintain skin health.

Recommended Brushing Frequency:

American Bulldogs have minimal grooming needs. Weekly brushing should suffice.
