๐ It's shedding season! ๐๐จ Ever wonder what REALLY goes into a professional deshedding appointment?
๐พ Meet Dexter! ๐ This handsome boy is helping us take a behind-the-scenes look at his grooming appointment!
๐ป๐พ More Than Just a Bath! ๐ซง
Letโs talk about the process and why each step matters!
๐จ The Double Blowout: After a thorough bath, the first blowout helps remove excess water while loosening and blowing out dead undercoat. Once the coat is completely dry, itโs time for blowout number TWO! This second blowout helps remove even more loose hair that remains after the bathing and drying process.
And believe me, youโd be surprised how much hair can STILL come out during that second blowout! ๐
๐ซง Bath Time: A thorough shampoo and rinse help remove dirt, excess oils, and buildup from the skin and coat. Conditioner, when appropriate for the coat, helps keep it soft, manageable, and looking its best!
๐ Deshedding & Shedding Season: Did you know that many double-coated dogs experience increased shedding in both the spring AND fall? As their coats adjust to seasonal changes, that loose undercoat has to go somewhere!
Professional deshedding helps remove dead undercoat, reduce loose hair around your home, improve airflow through the coat, and prevent uncomfortable buildup and tangles.
While no grooming appointment can completely stop shedding, regular deshedding can make a BIG difference!
โ๏ธ Sanitary Trims: Just because your dog doesnโt need a full haircut doesnโt mean they canโt benefit from a little trimming!
Sanitary trims help keep sensitive areas clean by removing excess hair around the rear and private areas. This can help prevent waste from getting caught in the coat, reduce odors, and make everyday hygiene easier.
Sometimes the smallest details make the biggest difference in your dogโs comfort!
๐พ Paw Pad Trimming: Excess hair growing between and around the paw pads can collect dirt, debris, and moisture. Keeping this hair neatly trimmed helps maintain cleaner paws and may improve traction on slippery floors!
โจ Finishing Touches: Nail trims, ear cleaning, brushing, and all those little details that help your pup look and feel their best!
โค๏ธ Every Dog Is Different! Not every dog needs the same grooming routine. Each appointment is tailored to your dogโs individual coat type, grooming needs, and comfort.
Because grooming isnโt just about looking pretty. Itโs about keeping your dog comfortable, clean, and cared for!
