“Ah, the Affenpinscher — a tiny comedian with the face of a monkey and the heart of a lion! Their scruffy charm may appear delightfully unbothered, but make no mistake: maintaining that tousled elegance requires a discerning eye and a devoted brush.” — Lola
At Lola’s, we are on a mission to bring joy to pups and their humans.
For the love of gleam, here are some tips from Lola herself to keep your Affenpinscher dapper & delightfully disheveled between grooms.
At-Home Grooming Routine
Brushing: Brush 2–3 times per week using a slicker brush and metal comb to keep their coat free of mats — especially around the beard, chest, and legs.
Bathing: Every 4–6 weeks with a gentle, texturizing shampoo to preserve their natural scruff.
Face & Beard Care: Wipe their face after meals and gently comb through the beard to keep it clean and expressive.
Ear Care: Weekly checks for wax and moisture; use a dog-safe ear cleaner.
Paw & Nail Care: Trim nails every 2–3 weeks, and check paw pads for debris or matting.
Teeth: Add ultrasonic teeth cleaning to keep their tiny smile gleaming and their breath fresh.
When to call Lola’s Pet Salon
When their charming scruff starts veering into “wild forest gremlin” territory.
When the beard tangles, or the coat feels too soft or fluffy.
When it’s time for a proper hand-scissored tidy-up — or a calming, silent ultrasonic dental clean.
