Anatomy of a Dog Grooming
Following the steps we take to thoroughly groom your dog will help you to
understand the time that is required to complete the best possible haircut.
FULL GROOMING WITH A COAT CLIP INCLUDES:
- Brush and remove any mats from the coat.
- Pre clip excess fur before the bath for better skin cleansing.
- Clean eye area and check for any discharge.
- Pluck hair from ears, clean and flush out canals.
- Clip toenails and dew claws.
- Remove fur from under pads of feet for better traction.
- Clip private areas for sanitary purposes.
- Bathe with proper shampoo for skin type. (hypoallergenic, medicated, deodorizing, flea, whitening, oatmeal & aloe)
- Gentle crate dryers remove excess moisture from fur.
- Brush out and finish fluff drying pets coat on grooming table.
- Finish styling in client requested clip, whether traditional breed look, puppy clip, or a modified version.
- And, of course, a bow or bandana with a cookie completes the process!
We are very thorough and have our hands on every part of your dog's body. This enables us to alert you of anything we may notice that we feel should be brought to your attention, whether it's a tick bite or a lump. I'm happy to say that a dog's life was saved because of this when we alerted the client about the lump on the upper inner thigh area of her dog's leg. (not an area most people would notice) After a follow up with her vet, the cancerous mass was removed!
Such a Happy Ending!!
