Dogo Argentino Grooming
The Dogo Argentino's short, smooth white coat makes grooming these big dogs pretty easy--but because of its sheer size, Dogo Argentino grooming can be a bit time-consuming.
The Dogo's coat doesn't shed or tangle much, so it'll only need brushing once or twice a week. Use a bristle brush or grooming glove to go through the coat section by section, moving in the direction of hair growth.
Baths are necessary every 2-3 months, unless of course the dog gets especially dirty or stinky and an "emergency bath" is in order. When bathing your Dogo, be sure to use canine shampoo; because of the breed's white coat, you can use a whitening shampoo--Earthbath and Nature's Miracle are two recommended brands--to give the coat some extra gleam. Also take the time to rinse the shampoo from the coat, as any leftover soap residue will irritate the dog's skin.
And the Dogo's coat is simply too short to sport any hairstyle other than its natural one--so haircuts aren't required at all.
Though it's entirely possible for owners to learn all the Dogo Argentino grooming needs themselves, it's a good idea to take the dog to a professional groomer at least once. The groomer can give your Dogo a nice makeover, and provide tips on how to groom a Dogo Argentino at home.
