Fit Tip 4/24/09 brushing

This is part of a series in keeping your furkids, especially the elder variety, feeling and looking their best. It is not intended to supercede medical advice or directives.

Here is another worth and easy tip: brushing your dog. Brushing serves to increase superficial circulation, much like a massage does. Not only does it feel good (of course!) to your doggie and increase his/her bonding, but you will be better able to notice changes such as: bites, lumps and bumps, etc. For dogs with medium to long-hair, this tip is essential; matting of the fur hurts!
