Care
Mastín Español need weekly brushing to keep their thick coats clean and free of loose fur. When they blow their coats in the fall, more frequent brushing may be necessary. Nail trims and ear cleanings should also be part of your pup’s standard care. To keep dental disease (and bad breath) at bay, establish a good dental hygiene program that includes professional cleanings and regular at-home teeth brushing.
Lastly, to help your dog maintain a healthy weight, keep an eye on their food intake and measure out meals to avoid overfeeding. And remember, as a guideline, treats should make up no more than 10% of a dog’s daily calories.
Always visit a professional veterinarian if you believe your dog may have health issues.
