Ease of grooming

the   Korean Jindo dog does not require a particularly restrictive maintenance . Subject to 2 moults per year, he is a dog known to be clean.

It is recommended to brush the dog weekly to preserve the beauty of his coat. During the moult, brushing becomes more frequent to remove dead hair. It does not need to be bathed frequently.

Its hair, ears, eyes and pads should be examined after each outing in the wild to detect and remove any debris or external parasites. Her teeth need to be brushed regularly to eliminate tartar build-up and the proliferation of bacteria. Finally, if they do not wear out naturally, its claws need to be cut. If you are new to this, it is recommended that you seek advice from a veterinarian or groomer.
