Professional
dog grooming does much more than keeping your canine companion looking
and smelling clean. Regular grooming helps your pet
feel its best and can compliment your dog's veterinary care. It can
also
lead to early detection of some health concerns.

- Bath
(hydrosurge bathing**)

types)

**The
hydrosurge bathing system is a therapeutic bath with Jacuzzi-like jet
action. This type of bathing can remove loose hair and dead skin which
leaves the coat healthier and shinier.
Puppy's
First Grooming
It is important that you acclimate your new addition to the grooming
environment. A puppy's first experience at the groomers should be as
enjoyable and comfortable as possible. With most dogs needing to be
groomed every 4 to 8 weeks and the dogs average life span 12-14 years,
grooming is something that should be started as soon as possible. With
our cage free environment, puppies will not only become accustomed to
the sights, smells, and sounds of a grooming shop, but they will also
get play time with the other "kids". Whether it be just a
bath and a trim, so Mommy and Daddy can see those beautiful baby eyes,
or their first "big kid haircut" our knowledgeable groomers
will work with both you and your baby to make the grooming experience
one you will both enjoy.
Read ahead for some helpful hints for you to try at home before
your dog's first visit:

- Play
with their feet: A puppies feet can be the most ticklish part of their
body, so while you are enjoying snuggle time, rub their feet. Discourage
"mouthing" (play biting) and reward them lavishly when they
allow you to rub their feet without a fuss.
-
Face
& Eyes: Sometimes a pair of clippers or scissors between a puppies
eyes and around the face can frighten them, but by taking a silver
spoon and gently rubbing it on the bridge of their nose (the area
between their eyes and down to their nose), you can help to familiarize
them with the feeling of something being there.
-
Brushing
& Combing: while brushing and combing is important for a dog of
any age, it is especially important for a puppy. You should not brush
and comb your puppy on the floor, your puppy will think of it as play
time. If there are two of you, you can try placing your puppy on a
table, counter, or washer/dryer (place puppy on a towel or mat to
avoid slipping), have your helper hold your puppy in place. Brush
lightly over the body telling them what a good dog they are. When
your "work" time is over (brushing and combing)
Give
your puppy a special treat, one they only get for grooming. This will
make it a pleasant experience for your puppy to look forward to everyday.
