14 best dog grooming products that keep your pup clean and healthy
Tackle your canines' skin irritations or mucky fur with these essential tools
Just as we humans like to keep clean, our four-legged friends also benefit from being kept in ship shape condition.
There are, of course, professional dog groomers you can turn to.
But with lockdown forcing all dog owners to go DIY – some for the first time ever – many have realised that for some breeds, the basics aren’t so hard after all.
And in any case, even dogs that regularly frequent the groomers need spruce up at home. Aside from keeping your pet's coat shiny and tangle free, grooming also helps to prevent skin irritations and pesky lodgers in your dog's fur.
We have worked our way through dozens of grooming essentials across dogs of all shapes and sizes to find you the best of them.
You can trust our independent reviews. We may earn commission from some of the retailers, but we never allow this to influence selections, which are formed from real-world testing and expert advice. This revenue helps to fund journalism across The Independent.
The verdict: Dog grooming products
Tired of spending a seemingly infinite amount of time drying down your dog? Paws & Presto’s extra large high-performance microfibre dog towel is a life changing bit of kit for those who want it done in a jiffy. We also rate the Furmimator dog de-shedding tool – it's a professional standard tool that's incredibly effective.
