How often should a German Shepherd be groomed?
Every 6-8 weeks for professional grooming, with de-shedding treatments recommended during spring and autumn coat blows.
Why does my German Shepherd shed so much?
German Shepherds have a dense double coat designed to protect them in all weather. They shed their undercoat heavily twice a year ("coat blow") and moderately year-round.
Can I shave my German Shepherd?
Never shave a German Shepherd. Their double coat provides insulation from heat and cold, and sun protection. Shaving can permanently damage the coat and lead to skin problems.
How much does German Shepherd grooming cost?
A full German Shepherd groom in Australia typically costs $80-$130, reflecting their large size and heavy coat. De-shedding add-ons may cost extra.
