Do I Really Need To Use Conditioner on My Dog?<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Most people dislike bathing their dog because, let’s admit it, it’s a pain in the rear end. By the end of the process you’re wetter than your dog, and the bathroom is left in shambles. So for most, the idea of prolonging the bathing experience one minute longer is not even an option. However, that one or two extra minutes to condition your dog can really improve the state of their coat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The case for conditioners – As we all know, shampoos by design are used for removing unwanted grime from the skin and coat. But shampooing, without sealing the coat afterwords, leaves the hair shaft open where residue can enter and oils and hydration escape. But conditioning after shampooing will close the hair cuticle and restore hydration, moisture and elasticity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Conditioners also fill in the damaged hair that drying, brushing, dematting and petting cause. Just normal wear and tear chips away at the hair cuticle which a conditioner will restore to a smooth state and one that gives a more lustrous appearance and feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a>\n\n\n\n
The most amazing conditioner I\u2019ve used is Hydrating Butter<\/a> . It\u2019s an oatmeal-based ultra rich conditioning treatment for dry, damaged and long coats. It\u2019s very think and rich and leaves the dog super soft & silky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, in a nutshell it’s definitely better to condition your dog than not to condition. But some dogs benefit more than others.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
