Grooming for Rough Collies

Collies may require weekly grooming for their abundant double coats. But, one thing for sure, you're not going to have to slave away to keep your Rough Collie's sleek locks in tip-top shape. We recommend that you give your Rough Collie a good weekly grooming to avoid mats and keep their hair coat safe, healthy and shiny.  These dogs are pretty tidy in spite of their intense amount of hair. Thus, there’s no need for you to go overboard with bathing them. It should be more than sufficient to give them a decent scrub every few months. Don't forget, before getting your dog into the shower, it's always best to properly groom your pooch.
