GROOMING TOOLS
 
Below is a list of grooming tools you will need to care for your Hav's coat:
 

  • Pin Brush. One pin brush very popular with

              Havanese owners is the Chris Christensen

              #20, or #27 depending on the size of the dog.

              The numbers refer to the length of the pins.

  • Greyhound Comb…one that has medium 

              teeth on one end, and fine on the other.

  • Flea Comb…You will use this for combing

              foreign substances from your dog's eye area.

  • Small Slicker Brush for using on lower leg

              hair.

  • Nail Clippers or Nail Sander.
  • Scissors for trimming between pads and around feet.
  • Thinning Scissors for use around genital area.
  • Hemostat or tweezers
  • Coat Conditioner or Coat Oil
  • Spray Bottle…for misting your dog's coat during grooming.
  • Hair Bands

 

Items you will probably want to add when possible:

 

  • Grooming Table. The small size, or for smaller Havs a sturdy ringside table works fine.
  • Blow Dryer. These are special for dog coats. Rather than drying with heat, they actually

              blow the water off the dog's coat.
