🐾 TRUTHFUL THURSDAY 🐾
THINK YOUR DOG DOESN'T NEED GROOMING? THINK AGAIN.
Some grooming myths just won't go away...
❌ “My dog doesn't need brushing because they have short hair.”
Short-coated dogs still shed, collect dirt and benefit from regular skin and coat checks.
❌ “My dog doesn't smell, so they're clean.”
Odour isn't the only measure of hygiene. Ears, teeth, paws, skin and coat all need attention.
❌ “Shaving keeps every dog cooler.”
Not necessarily. A dog's coat can provide protection from sun and the environment. Shaving should be based on the individual dog's coat, condition and welfare needs.
❌ “A few mats aren't a big deal.”
Mats can become tight against the skin, trapping moisture and debris and causing discomfort.
❌ “Grooming is just about making them look pretty.”
Absolutely not.
✨ Grooming is maintenance, comfort, hygiene and observation.
And sometimes, during a groom, we spot something that deserves a closer look by a veterinarian.
🐾 Beautiful is a bonus. Healthy and comfortable comes first.
