This month we’re talking about the impaw-tance of grooming and how to not only have a pretty pooch but a healthy one too! Under those fluffy bows and frills there are a manifold of benefits grooming has for your pooch, no matter their coat, fur type or hair length. We recommend washing every 2-3 weeks and grooming every 9-12 to keep your pooch healthy and fresh. From nail clipping to pad treatment, we’re here to unleash the benefits.
1. Early Detection and Prevention
Frequent and regular grooming can help you detect any issues early, get your furry friend on the mend sooner and minimise future problems. As well as cleaning the fur, professional groomers often check the skin for anything that looks a little unusual like scratches, bumps or rashes.
2. Say Goodbye To Pesky Ticks and Fleas
Whether it’s a bath or comb through the fur, regular care can help keep a pristine coat, prevent matting and give you the extra chance to keep an eye out for ticks and other unwanted additions to your furry friend’s coat.
3. Walk With Ease
Nail clipping and trimming is critical to your furry friend’s wellbeing and, if left untreated, can lead to a range of problems like issues walking, joint and muscle pain and if nail curling occurs, can impact the skin.
4. Clean Friend, Clean Home
Not to go unnoted, clean nails and coats often mean a cleaner home for you with less free-flying fur and smaller nails to do less damage to your furniture and floor. Not to mention, they do look adorable with a fresh bow and new hair-do.
If you need a hassle-free grooming option, our team at Pooch & Play offer in-house grooming and pampering services for dogs of all coats and fur-types. Why not book in for daycare and while you’re there, a regular groom and wash? Check out our washing and grooming options here.
