Good grooming practices are essential for maintaining health and happiness for you and your dog.
There are many factors that will determine when is a good time to have your dog groomed, but the most common would be:
- your dog hasn’t been bathed in a while and is dirty and stinky
- your dog’s hair is too long for you to maintain or brush-out
- your dog has fleas and you are about to start a Veterinary Flea Program
- your dog has several mats
- your dog has rolled in garbage
- your dog swam with the geese
- socialization experience
- you want to spring clean your pet with a new fresh scent
- your puppy has reached 12 weeks old – let’s start the grooming introductions
- your dog is scratching, scooting, and has itchy dry skin- your groomer can use a skin soothing or medicated shampoo
- your dog requires his/her nails cut and ears cleaned
- you find it hard to snuggle with your greasy friend
- your dog had an unfortunate encounter with a skunk
- your groomer recommended your next appointment and the day has approached
- give your dog a day at the spa for a Christmas treat, or other special occasion
Whatever the reason, a grooming schedule is always a good idea! See you soon!
