Frequently asked questions about dog care & dog bowls - SABRO
In general, you should look after your dog regularly to maintain his health and recognize signs of illness as early as possible. The sensory organs in particular should be checked regularly. The frequency of grooming depends on the type of coat: short-haired dogs require less effort, while long-haired or heavily shedding breeds need regular brushing - ideally several times a week. At SABRO you will find well thought-out grooming accessories that feel pleasant and strengthen the bond between humans and dogs.
For smooth, short coats, we recommend soft brushes or gloves that gently remove loose hair. For long or curly coats, de-matting brushes or coarse tines help to prevent tangles.
A regular visual check is often sufficient - cleaning should only be carried out if there is visible dirt or increased earwax. Our gentle ear cleaners clean effectively without disturbing the sensitive balance of the ears - without any alcohol or irritating additives.
Brushing teeth prevents plaque, inflammation and bad breath. The best time to start is when your dog is a puppy. SABRO offers natural dental care products that dissolve plaque without overburdening the dog - with a pleasant taste and without artificial foaming agents.
Stainless steel is hygienic, durable and easy to clean. Ceramic is tasteless and stable. At SABRO, we rely on high-quality materials without harmful substances - safe for dogs and people, suitable for everyday use and aesthetically pleasing at the same time.
An ergonomically positioned bowl - e.g. slightly raised - can help to make eating more comfortable for larger dogs. This is easy on the joints and neck and supports a relaxed posture when eating. Our bowls can be combined and adapted in a variety of ways.
Food and water bowls should be cleaned daily - ideally with hot water and a mild detergent. This will prevent germs, biofilm and unpleasant odors. Our SABRO bowls are easy to clean and retain their quality over the long term.
About dog care, dog bowls & snacks
All-round care for a healthy dog
Feeding is one of your dog's daily highlights. In addition to a balanced diet, the accessories also play a decisive role. Large dogs benefit from raised food stands to prevent unhealthy gobbling. At SABRO, you'll find high-quality bowls and food stands that are both practical and stylish. Our dog bowls made of Swedish stainless steel combine durability, hygiene and attractive design.

And treats are also an integral part of a dog owner's everyday life, so healthy snacks play a major role alongside the right accessories. But be careful: as much as your dog enjoys treats and chews, they should never be given arbitrarily! This is because treats serve as a reward for most dog owners and are an expression of love and appreciation, helping you to strengthen the bond with your four-legged friend. Our snacks are therefore made from natural ingredients and contain no sugar, grain or artificial additives. Always reward your dog when it has behaved correctly. Later, when the command and behavior are in place, you can reduce the treats somewhat. However, you should not skimp on praise and petting. In contrast to normal treats, chews not only offer a meaningful activity, but also have the advantage that they naturally clean your dog's teeth through chewing and thus contribute to dental health. Whether as a training supplement, activity, teeth cleaning or to support healthy teeth - the right choice ensures health and pleasure at the same time.
In addition to the right food, grooming your dog is also a key part of their well-being and health. Proper dog grooming involves much more than just the occasional brushing of the coat: the care of ears, eyes, claws and teeth also plays a crucial role. A well-groomed dog not only radiates vitality, but also feels good all round. With the right care, you can prevent many health problems and strengthen the bond with your four-legged friend. Our tips will help you to optimally integrate dog grooming into your everyday life - from regular coat care to checking ears and claws to dental care. This will ensure that your dog stays healthy and happy at any age.
Healthy treats and chews for your dog
With so many different dog treats and chews, it is important to take a close look at the ingredients. Because only high-quality treats provide your pet with vitamins and proteins. They are also much easier to digest and do not cause any health problems such as tartar or intolerances. Flavor enhancers and sugar have no place here. Cereals should also be avoided where possible.
Natural ingredients are best: Meat or vegetables. Dried meat is particularly popular. Not only does it taste delicious to your dog, it also contains important vitamins and proteins that he needs.
If you are training your young dog or are training particularly intensively on a particular day, it is best to use low-calorie treats and reduce the main food accordingly so that your dog does not become fat. With puppies in particular, you should take care to introduce them gently to new treats and training situations. Also look out for signs of anxiety in puppies to ensure they have positive experiences with treats and training. Snacks should generally make up less than 10% of the total daily ration.
Advantages of treats and dog snacks at a glance:
- as a reward in training or everyday life
- Love and appreciation for your four-legged friend
- Supply of vitamins and proteins
- Some additional functions such as tooth cleaning
All-round care - grooming products for your dog
Dog grooming is not just a question of beauty, but essential for your dog's health. Special dog care products are particularly important, as they are specifically designed to meet the needs of our four-legged friends and have been developed for the care of dogs - for example for ears, teeth, eyes, coat and paws. For some breeds, grooming the coat should be part of the daily routine. And depending on the length of the coat, brushes, currycombs and the like have to perform differently. Proper grooming of your pet includes various areas such as dental care, coat care and cleaning the ears and eyes to maintain hygiene and well-being. Regular checking and cleaning of eyes, ears, teeth and paws is also particularly important and promotes your dog's well-being. It is crucial to find the right level of care to promote health without overtaxing your dog. This can even help prevent or avoid illness.
In addition to the health aspect, regular grooming also strengthens the relationship between you and your dog. Together you can create a basis for your furry friend to feel completely at ease.
Care of eyes, ears, teeth and paws
Our dogs use their ears and eyes to perceive their surroundings and move around safely. Regular cleaning of these organs is therefore particularly important. Check your dog's ears regularly to detect and prevent parasites and inflammation at an early stage. Chamomile can be used to gently care for sensitive ears. Regularly and gently remove dirt and prevent inflammation. Watery eyes in dogs also have a natural self-cleaning effect that helps to flush out dirt and irritants. At SABRO, we offer many helpful articles for the care of eyes and ears, as well as suitable tips for habituation and application.
It is best to teach your dog to brush his teeth from an early age so that he gets used to it and you can ensure healthy and clean teeth. Chewy snacks are not a suitable alternative for proper dental hygiene. For dogs, regular care of all areas - eyes, ears, teeth and paws - is essential for their well-being.
Check your dog's paws and claws regularly and trim them if necessary. Use claw nippers to trim the claws safely and painlessly and avoid causing your dog pain. This way you can also quickly detect cracks or small injuries in the paw. Regular paw care is particularly worthwhile in summer and winter. In the event of an injury, the best way to protect the paw is with a suitable dog boot from SABRO. We offer three different types of shoe in different sizes to ensure optimum protection for your four-legged friend.
Coat care - a shiny coat for every dog
Grooming is at the heart of dog care and should be tailored to your dog's individual needs. The requirements differ depending on the breed and coat type: While short-haired dogs usually get by with occasional brushing, long-haired breeds require more intensive grooming. Regular brushing removes loose hair, prevents matting and ensures that your dog's coat stays healthy and shiny. With the right brush or comb, you can optimally care for your pet's coat and stimulate blood circulation in the skin at the same time. This not only keeps the coat beautiful, but also makes it resistant to external influences. Make sure to adapt the coat care to the respective breed and coat type to get the best out of your dog.
Long-haired dogs and their special needs
Long-haired dogs place special demands on coat care. Their long fur is prone to tangles and knots, which not only look unattractive but can also lead to skin irritation and inflammation. It is therefore important to brush your dog's coat thoroughly every day and comb it regularly. This removes loose hair and effectively prevents matting. Occasional clipping of the coat can also help to make grooming easier and keep your dog's skin healthy. When grooming, make sure to check the skin regularly for redness or small wounds to detect problems early on. With consistent grooming, your long-haired dog's coat will not only stay beautiful, but also healthy and free from inflammation.
Care and well-being in old age
Your dog's needs change as they get older - including when it comes to grooming. Older dogs benefit from an adapted diet that caters to their specific needs, as well as gentle but regular exercise. Grooming remains important as the coat often thins with age and the skin becomes more sensitive. Check your senior's ears, eyes and claws regularly to detect and treat inflammation or injuries at an early stage. Dental care should not be neglected either, as dental problems occur more frequently in old age. Regular visits to the vet help to detect illnesses in good time and maintain your dog's health. With loving care and attention, you can ensure that your dog remains vital and happy even in his senior years.
