Brushing Biscuit Takes Two People. Frank and Dottie Have a System.

Grooming is a two-person job in this house. Biscuit lies stretched across the wooden back steps, gazing off with a calm, slightly dreamy look, while Frank and Dottie lean in from behind in their matching cream cable-knit sweaters. Dottie runs a brush gently along his fluffy back, smiling as she works, and Frank holds a grooming tool near the dog's shoulder, glasses on and concentrating. A wall lantern glows warm against the siding, and a pair of sneakers and a rumpled towel sit nearby on the steps. It has the quiet feel of an evening routine they all know well.

Corgis are famous shedders. Their dense double coat releases fur year-round and especially heavily a couple of times a year during seasonal coat changes. Brushing several times a week helps control the fur tumbleweeds and keeps the coat healthy. An undercoat rake or deshedding tool reaches the soft fluff underneath, while a slicker brush smooths the outer layer. Shaving a Corgi is generally not recommended, because the double coat helps regulate temperature and protects the skin. Grooming sessions are also a good chance to check ears, nails, and skin for anything unusual, and to give your dog some calm one-on-one attention.

Biscuit looks thoroughly pampered, and the porch may soon be covered in fur. A little extra sweeping seems a small price for a dog this content.
