That moment you share your rituals 😌
______________
This one goes out to everyone who has DMed us asking how I manage to shower Tom when we’re away from home.
Because of his allergies and skin condition, Tom normally follows a very strict cleaning routine. When we’re travelling, however, I often just wash his paws and wipe away pollen and other allergens with a damp towel.
This trip was a little different.
We were staying by the coast, and Tom went swimming every single day. As much as he loves it, all that salt needs to be washed off, so a full bath became necessary.
The routine is actually quite simple. I use a neutral soap, rinse, and then I remove the excess water with a grooming brush, towel dry him, and finish with a blow dryer.
The whole process takes about six minutes.
After that, a little antifungal cream, and he’s done.
Worth it.
