- Coat gloss
- Dog nail clippers
- Cotton swab
Step1
Brush your dog occasionally, once a week at most, using a rubber brush to remove any shed hair.
Step2
Wipe your dog's mouth regularly. Black and Tan Coonhounds drool a great deal. Of course, this is more of a nuisance for their owners than the dogs themselves.
Step3
Bathe twice a month or as needed if your dog becomes filthy. This breed's skin can become overly dry with too much bathing.
Step4
Apply a coat gloss or a light coat of protein conditioner spray to give your Black and Tan Coonhound a gorgeous sheen to its coat.
Step5
Clean your dog's ears regularly using an ear cleansing solution, found at any pet store. Squeeze a few drops of the solution into your dog's ear canals, working it in by gently rubbing the base of your dog's ears. Use a cotton-tip applicator or cotton swab to remove any dirt, debris and excess solution. Black and Tan Coonhounds are extremely susceptible to ear infections.
Step6
Clip your dog's nails regularly just at the tips.
