The Caucasian Shepherd Dog can have a coat that's short, medium, or long, and the care required of their coat will vary depending on the individual dog. For example, Caucasian Shepherd Dogs with long coats will need daily grooming, while dogs with medium-length or short coats might be able to get away with weekly brushing to prevent mats and remove loose fur. All dogs require regular dental care, including at-home teeth brushing and professional dental cleanings, and the Caucasian Shepherd Dog is no exception. Maintaining good dental hygiene is important for their overall long-term health.
