Although many pet dogs don't require too much grooming time, there are certain things that you should not overlook when it comes to caring for your dog. Whether your dog has long hair or short, you will still need to clips the dog's nails, give it at least an occassional bath, brush its teeth, take it to the vet regularly, and feed it the proper food to maintain good health. It is also important to give dogs some exercise every day to avoid obesity and behavioral problems.
It can be easy to forget to take care of certain tasks relating to your dog's health, however. One example of this has to do with cleaning your dog's ears.
