What dog breeds require more grooming?

While all dogs need to be bathed and brushed occasionally, some dog breeds require more grooming than others. Medium and longhaired dogs with constantly growing hair will need to be groomed in order to maintain a neat and orderly looking coat. Some dog breeds require frequent brushing and hair trims, though the amount of grooming that is done is really up to personal preference.

The dog breeds that require the most grooming include the Afghan Hound, Bichon Frise, Kerry Blue Terrier, Pekingese, Poodle, Portuguese Water Dog, Puli, Belgian Sheepdog, Affenpinscher, Bearded Collie, Cocker Spaniel, Irish Terrier, Komondor, Lhasa Apso and Lowchen. These dog breeds need frequent grooming including bathing, brushing, and trimming.
