KooeeKeis Australian Cobberdogs ~ Ethical Family Breeder in WA
Your Puppy's First Bath, Groom & Clip
At KooeeKeis Australian Cobberdogs, we believe early positive experiences shape a confident, happy dog for life. That’s why every puppy receives their first gentle introduction to bathing, grooming and clipping before going to their new home.
Our goal is simple: when your puppy visits the groomer in the future, it should feel familiar, safe and stress-free.

A Gentle Introduction to Grooming
Before leaving KooeeKeis, your puppy will experience a kind, calm and sensitive introduction to the grooming process.
This includes:
A gentle bath using puppy-safe shampoo
Blow drying at a low, comfortable setting
A light introductory clip around the face, feet and hygiene areas
Calm handling of ears, paws and body brushing
These early experiences help puppies learn that grooming is simply part of everyday life.
By starting this process early, we help build confidence and trust, which makes future grooming appointments far easier for both puppy and groomer.
Bringing Your Cobberdog Puppy Home
Desensitising Your Puppy to Grooming Tools
In your KooeeKeis Puppy Pack, you will receive a small vibrating device.
This tool is incredibly helpful in preparing your puppy for future grooming clippers.
How to use it
Every evening:
Turn the device on.
Gently run it over your puppy’s:
shoulders
back
sides
legs
Keep sessions short and calm (1–2 minutes is perfect).
Reward your puppy with praise or a small treat so the experience remains positive.
This simple routine helps desensitise your puppy to vibration, which is the same sensation they will feel during professional grooming.
The Australian Cobberdog Coat
Grooming Equipment We Recommend
Using quality grooming tools makes brushing easier and more comfortable for both you and your dog.
For professional grooming equipment, sharpening services, and high-quality tools, we recommend:
Oz Clipper & Scissor (WA) services Australia wide
They supply:
Professional clipper blades
Grooming scissors
Knife sharpening services
Equipment shipped Australia-wide
High-quality tools stay sharper longer and are far safer and more effective when maintaining a Cobberdog coat.
The beautiful coat of an Australian Cobberdog is one of the breed’s most loved features. However, it does require regular maintenance to keep it healthy and comfortable.
To maintain a well-kept coat, we recommend:
Professional grooming every 6–8 weeks
Brushing at least every second day
Regular coat checks to prevent matting
Without consistent grooming, the coat can become tight, uncomfortable and matted, which may require a full shave by a groomer.
Regular brushing keeps your Cobberdog’s coat:
Soft and healthy
Free of knots
Comfortable for your dog
Helping Your Puppy Love Grooming
One of the greatest gifts you can give your Cobberdog is confidence around grooming.
You can help by:
Handling their paws, ears and face regularly
Brushing calmly and consistently
Introducing grooming tools slowly
Keeping all grooming experiences positive and relaxed
With patience and consistency, your puppy will grow into a dog that stands happily for brushing and grooming.
A Lifetime of Coat Care
At KooeeKeis Australian Cobberdogs, we believe grooming is not just about appearance — it’s about health, comfort and wellbeing.
By continuing the gentle training your puppy has already started with us, you will help ensure grooming remains a pleasant and stress-free experience for life.
