Malshi Dog Clippers and Grooming Kits
How to Groom a Malshi at Home
Grooming a Malshi at home is completely manageable with the right tools and a consistent routine. Malshis have soft coats that can range from straight to wavy, and they often shed very little. This means regular grooming is essential to prevent tangles, especially around the chest, ears and legs where knots can develop quickly.
With safe and easy to handle clippers, you can keep your Malshi looking neat and feeling comfortable. Masterclip clippers are designed to be quiet and gentle, which helps keep grooming stress free for nervous or young dogs.
How Often Should You Groom a Malshi
We recommend:
• Brushing at least three to four times per week
• Full clipping every 6 to 8 weeks
This helps prevent matting and keeps their coat soft, clean and easy to maintain.
Basic Grooming Steps for Malshis
• Brush the coat thoroughly to remove knots before clipping
• Use quiet clippers around the body and sensitive areas
• Trim around the face, ears and paws using grooming scissors for a tidy finish
Best Dog Clippers for Malshis
Malshi coats can vary depending on whether they take after the Maltese or the Shih Tzu. Some have a silky coat while others have a thicker, fluffier texture. The right clipper will help you get a smooth finish without snagging or pulling the hair.

Malshi Grooming FAQs
How short should I clip my Malshi
Most owners choose a 10 to 16 millimetre clip for an easy to manage pet trim. Longer comb attachments are ideal if you prefer a fluffy look.
Do Malshis shed
Malshis shed very little, which makes them popular with allergy friendly households. Their low shedding coat does need regular brushing to prevent knots.
How do I stop my Malshi from getting tear stains
Regular gentle cleaning around the eyes and keeping the face hair trimmed can help reduce tear staining. Using a pet safe tear stain remover can also help.
Can I groom a Malshi puppy
Yes, but keep sessions short and positive. Use quiet clippers and introduce brushing early to build confidence.
