How do you know when you are done brushing your dog?

Question

Seriously though. Do you brush until you stop getting hair on the brush? Or will you always have hair on the brush? I just stop when either he or I get tired of it!

Answer 1

Well brush the dog for the same amount of time every day or so, the hair will most likely decrease!  

Answer 2

Try a shedding blade or a hand mitt slicker,dogs that stay inside shed year round.

Answer 3

I stop when there's not as much hair coming off as when I started, when my arm gets tired, and when the dog gets sick of it.

Answer 4

Until he runs to his bed? Probably until there is little to no hair coming onto the brushes or until one of you gets tire of it.

Answer 5

I brush our dogs until I have done their entire body once.  The brush always picks up hair.  Brush often.

Answer 6

i would say when you have covered the whole coat

Answer 7

I don't know about dogs, but cats are that way.. just brush them until you are tired of it.. get the really loose stuff off.

I'd assume dogs are the same.

Answer 8

Until you barely see hair coming off.  

Answer 9
