CONHECIDO por sua exuberante pelagem, apesar do pequeno porte, o Spitz é uma raça muita antiga. Aqui no Brasil a raça ganhou o nome de Lulu da Pomerânia e popularidade por ser um ótimo cão de companhia.
A RECENTE popularidade, entretanto, pegou muitos tosadores desavisados e despreparados. Não acostumados com a pelagem da raça, muitos Spitz acabam recebendo um tratamento inadequado no petshop. O que pouca gente sabe é que o Lulu da Pomerânia pertence ao grupo 5 da classificação da Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI), que inclui raças bem populares no Brasil, como o Chow-Chows, Samoiedas, Huskys e Akitas.
“UM groomer que sabe trabalhar com Chow-Chow, sendo esta a raça mais popular nesse grupo, também saberá trabalhar com um Spitz. Entretanto, este detalhe às vezes passa desapercebido pelos groomers”, explica o esteticista canino Sergio Villasanti, da Escola Estética Canina.
OS CÃES do grupo 5 têm como característica a naturalidade, isto é, a pelagem deve ser sem marcas de tesoura ou máquina. No entanto, Villasanti conta que, como os proprietários desses cães na realidade querem mais comodidade quando o assunto é cuidados com o pêlo, o corte da pelagem é normalmente feito de uma forma que o cão tenha a aparência de um “bichinho de pelúcia”.
O GROOMER também afirma que esse tipo de corte arredondado, natural e sem marcas só é possível pelas mãos de um profissional experiente. Já a manutenção semanal pode ser feita pelos donos com a ajuda de uma escova de pino sem bolinha na ponta e desembaraçante, que preservam o sub-pêlo e ainda dão uma aparência mais cheia. “Os banhos podem ser dados a cada mês, pois são raças que não possuem odor. E nunca use uma rasqueadeira desde a raiz ou um pente para a retirada do sub-pêlo”, indica Villasanti para todos os cães do grupo 5 da FCI.
