Care
The Bracco Italiano’s grooming needs are minimal. Their coats typically require only a few minutes of brushing each week.
Because their long ears can be more susceptible to ear infections, Braccos need them routinely checked and cleaned.
All dogs need regular dental care, including at-home teeth brushing and professional dental cleanings. Maintaining good dental hygiene is key to their overall long-term health.
Bracco Italianos are big dogs that eat a lot. As such, they need a high-quality diet appropriate for their life stage (e.g., puppy, adult, senior). To best meet your Bracco’s specific nutritional needs, your veterinarian may recommend a formula made specifically for large-breed dogs.
Always visit a professional veterinarian if you believe your dog may have health issues.
