Tip #4

All you need is a brush and comb - honest!

A Universal Slicker which looks like this:

And a comb that should look something like this:

Use the slicker and make a line down to the skin, then line by line slicker any knots out of your dogs coat. Once you have done this, use the comb and check your work with the slicker.

Be careful not to slicker burn your dog (scratching your dogs skin with the slicker).

If you spend just 15 minutes a day on your dogs coat then you can have a beautiful full coat and never have your coat shaved bald due to matting that is so bad it can't be combed through.

Here are a few examples of shave-offs:

Here is Cheri, showing off a very tight Palm Beach

(unfortunately she was too matted to save much more)

so I thought she needed to show off a bit of sass with a touch of colour!

We are able to add a touch of colour to your pet during it's next visit if you would like to try something different! All colours used are non-toxic, child and animal safe, can be wash off or semi permanent. Contact us for more information.

Tip #3

Talk to your Groomer! I can't stress this enough. There might be things that you don't feel are important to tell your Groomer, but small things can end up being a big part of the picture. Rear dewclaws, new lumps or warts, a vet surgical site, or a ripped nail are all things that you need to pass along to your Groomer.

For your dog's sake make sure that you take that extra 5 minutes to let your Groomer know what's going on, it will make a difference!

This owner forgot to mention that their dog has a stainless steel set of canines! Can you imagine the damage this dog could inflict if it wasn't a big love-bucket?!?
