#16 Experts recommend combing the dog every day, and removing matted hair and superficially trimming the animal a couple of times a month.
However, there are also some nuances here. In particular, among this breed, both individuals with hard and soft hair are found, and they are looked after in different ways. Wire-haired blackies are less problematic in terms of grooming. Their hair is not so actively dumped and tangled, so there is no need to be on duty with a comb and a collar cutter near them. In dogs with soft hair, the situation is exactly the opposite: if they are not combed daily and the mats are not cut off in time, they quickly lose their gloss.
#17 A few words about the “bangs” of the black terrier.
Ignorant dog lovers often speak out about the fact that the long hair on the forehead of the animal prevents him from seeing. Moreover, according to the same theory, wool collected in a ponytail is also not a panacea. Allegedly, after such a procedure, the dog will certainly go blind. In fact, you can tidy up your pet's decorating hair as you like, or even braid it. This fact will not affect visual acuity in any way. Leaving bangs falling over the eyes of the dog, too, no one forbids. Believe me, what he needs, the black terrier will definitely see through the thick strands.
