The Bernese Mountain Dog is a big, beautiful Dog that has a lot of gorgeous fur. However, there is a price to pay for such beautiful fur; Bernese Mountain Dog Grooming must be done on a regular basis. Due to the Bernese Mountain Dogs long fur, it should be bathed once a week to once a month, depending on whether your Dog is inside or outside most of the time.
The Bernese Mountain Dog has ears which are down, this is why their ears require weekly checking. You will want to look for dirt, mites or ticks and treat or clean them appropriately. You will also want to trim your Bernese Mountain Dog's nails every two weeks, this may be less if they spend a lot of time outside which may allow them to wear their nails down for themselves.
You will want to brush your Bernese Mountain Dog's coat once to twice a week. Weekly brushing will help to control your Dog's shedding, plus it will stop their thick coat from becoming matted and tangled. By properly Grooming your Bernese Mountain Dog, you will help it to maintain healthy skin and a shiny coat.
