-The old “stitch in time” saying applies well to taking care of a husky’s coat.
-Little and often will always be better than leaving a husky’s coat
maintenance until it becomes a real problem.
-A husky’s coat can become knotted and matted easily when left to its own devices.
-In the summer, their shed fur can clump together with their coat, making a regular brush essential.
-Shed fur from the undercoat can become trapped, causing knots and irritation.
-Brushing your husky regularly will open up the coat and remove stubborn
fur.
-If you brush regularly, your dog will also get used to the feeling. Many
dogs actually enjoy the process once they’re familiar with it.
-But few dogs enjoy having lumps yanked out of their tangled coat, so do it early
and often.
-We love and recommend the Furminator, which is highly effective in
reducing shedding in dogs with double coats such as huskies.
