While the timing can differ between dog breeds, according to the American Kennel Club, for most breeds you should have your dog groomed once a month. Consistent grooming for your dog will help prevent matting and knots. Typically, if left untreated, matting can quickly worsen when moisture that is trapped underneath a matted coat progresses into skin irritation or infections. Thus, grooming is a preventative activity that should not be overlooked.
