Things You'll Need:
- #30 blade
- #10 blade
- Natural bristle brush
- Pin brush
- #15 blade
-
Step 1
Use a #30 blade to style the hair on the body. The Portuguese Water Dog has a coat similar to that of a Poodle, although the hair on this breed grows in much more slowly and there are many different ways to style them. Use a #10 blade on the stomach.
-
Step 2
Brush thoroughly at least twice per week with a natural bristle brush. Use a slicker brush and a pin brush when needed. Although it's a thick coat, it's only a single coat and thus isn't subject to the tough knots and matting that double coats develop.

Step 3
Use a #15 blade to tidy up the pads of the feet which may have stray hairs.
