Step 1
Pet your Labrador retriever daily. This is a great way to bond with your dog and the best way to become accustomed to your Labrador's typical coat and skin condition.
-
Step 2
Use a rubber or natural-bristle brush to remove dirt and loose hair from your Labrador's skin. You can brush her daily or weekly.
-
Step 3
Follow up with a soft-bristle brush to distribute the natural oils in the coat.

Step 4
Apply a topical flea treatment to your Labrador Retriever monthly. Flea saliva contains allergens that can cause reactions to your Labrador's skin.

Bathe your Labrador retriever when necessary due to excessive dirt or odor, typically monthly. Use a mild shampoo specifically designed for dogs and tepid water for your Labrador's bath.
