Brush Bouviers des Flandres at least once per week to remove dead hair and keep their coats free of tangles, mats, and debris. Their beards may also need cleaning. Bouviers des Flandres have fast-growing nails that will need to be trimmed every one to two weeks to prevent them from becoming overgrown and causing pain or discomfort when they walk. Like all breeds, Bouviers des Flandres benefit from a regular dental care routine that includes at-home teeth brushing and professional cleanings.
