Help needed for hair grooming

[Mano]

Hi I have a male Norfolk terrier of 22 months and in Jeddah, Saudi arabia. Every climate change app twice in a year the hair of my dog gets knotted all over his body. We bathe him once a week using dog shampoo and conditioner. Also we brush his hair periodically. The vet says this happening due to the weather change and is natural. The way to eliminate this temporarily is shave the hair completely and the dog looks miserable for a few months . Can any one suggest an alternative please,
Regards,
Mano

Hi there,

I would strongly recommend to brush your dog more regularly if you can. That way you can prevent the knotting before it starts.

Gotta agree. I'd brush your dog daily and wash less often as you will destroy the natural oils in your dog's coat, which won't help with the knotting either.
