Do Newfoundlands need grooming?
Yes. Newfoundlands are water dogs with furry webbed feet anddouble, water-resistant coats of soft fur inside and long tough fur outside, able to swim in cold water. Their outer fur must be regularly brushed, trimmed, and thinned. The soft under fur needs regular, frequent brushing, especially during fall when it thickens and spring when it sheds. Grooming helps your dog “change” its winter and summer coats.Puppies should be brushed regularly so they enjoy being groomed whenfully grown.
