Writer's picture: manawaymanaway

The Lagotto Romagnolo is a unique breed, known for its distinctive curly coat. This coat is thick, soft, and curly, and requires regular care and grooming to maintain its appearance and texture. Proper coat care is essential to keeping your Lagotto Romagnolo healthy, happy, and comfortable. To keep your Lagotto's coat looking its best, it is important to groom it regularly. This includes brushing the coat to remove any tangles, mats, or loose hair when you find them. Brushing also helps to distribute the natural oils throughout the coat, which can help to keep it healthy and shiny. Just be aware that too much brushing will result in a reduction of some of that beautiful curl they are known and loved for. It is also a good idea to trim any mats or tangles that you come across, as these can be uncomfortable for your dog and may even lead to skin irritations if left untreated.

Another important aspect of Lagotto coat care is bathing. This breed has a natural, curly coat that can become matted and tangled if not bathed regularly. Bathing your Lagotto every 4 to 8 weeks can help to keep its coat clean and free of tangles. It is also important to use a gentle, high-quality, low froth dog shampoo that will not damage the coat or cause skin irritation. We like Panagenics.

In addition to regular grooming and bathing, it is important to keep an eye out for any skin or coat problems. This breed is prone to certain skin conditions, such as skin infections, allergies, and hot spots, so it is important to keep an eye out for any signs of trouble. If you notice any changes in your dog's skin or coat, it is important to take them to the vet for a check-up as soon as possible. In conclusion, proper coat care is essential to keeping your Lagotto Romagnolo healthy, happy, and comfortable. By brushing and bathing your dog regularly, keeping an eye out for skin or coat problems, and using high-quality grooming products, you can help to keep your Lagotto's coat looking its best for years to come.
