How to bathe a bristle-haired Griffon? You can judge whether it’s time to bathe your dog by touching the hair. When the hair is very clean, it will be soft and silky. When it is dirty, it will become frizzy and greasy. At this time, it should be bathed.

1. It is best to let the dog go outside or in a dedicated place to relieve himself before starting our project. The reason is simple.

2. Brush the dog’s entire body before taking a bath to prevent the tangled hair from becoming more serious. In particular, it is necessary to clean away knots, mud, tar, and chewing gum residue.

3. Let the dog stand firm in the basin, first wet the whole body with water of appropriate temperature, and gently comb the dog's hair to make the dog feel comfortable, calm down and ready for a bath.

4. Drop the shampoo, first apply the shampoo on the back, rub from the back to the buttocks, and rub the whole body to create foam.

5. Then wash the dog’s head and chest. At this time, fix its face with your hands and don’t let it hide around or lick the shampoo on its body. You can follow the example in the attached picture, grab its mouth with one hand, use a little force to make it feel that you are stronger than it, and then use the other hand to wash it. Be careful to avoid getting the foam into your dog’s eyes. Although the shampoos you buy in pet stores are marked with words such as "non-irritating to eyes," it's still best to be careful. It's best if there are two people working together.

6. Then wash the soles of your feet. Be sure to secure the dog to prevent it from slipping or escaping!

7. Start flushing. The direction of flushing is to clean the dog's head first, and then clean the dog's body. Start from the head and gradually flush backward. Do not grab it head-to-head. Be sure to rinse away the detergent thoroughly after washing. These residues on the dog's body will cause skin itching. The dog's scratching process can easily cause inflammation and infection.

8. Pour out the water in the basin, dry the dog with a towel, especially around the ears, and check again to see if there is any water in the ears.

9. Blow dry with a hair dryer. Be sure to blow dry, otherwise the dog will easily catch a cold. While blowing, comb the dog's fur. Because the heat from the hair dryer will further irritate the affected skin area.

10. After drying, please remember to comb your dog’s hair.

11. Bathing is complete! Now you and the dog can have a rest!
