Frequently asked questions about grooming
Q:
My dog is shedding a lot, should I shave it down?
A: Pets that are shedding will still shed after they are clipped
short, they will just be shorter hairs. A good brush-out and bath will go a long ways toward cutting down on the amount of
coat your pet loses.
Q: How long does it take to groom my pet?
A: It depends on the condition,
ease of grooming, and difficulty of the trim being done for your pet as to how much time is needed. On average it can be from
3 to 4 hours.
Q: My pet is matted; do you have to clip it short?
A: Matted coats are often
painful and can be very stressful for your pet. If your pet should become matted, the groomer can give you safe and stress
free alternatives to brushing out a matted coat.
Q: How often should my pet be groomed?
A:
It depends on the breed, length of hair and lifestyle of you and your pet. Many of the smaller, coated breeds need attention
more often than the larger short coated ones.
Q: How much will grooming cost?
A: The cost
of grooming your pet will depend on the difficulty of the trim, the size, breed, and condition of the pet. A trim on a pet
in poor condition will cost more than a trim on a pet that receives care on a regular basis.
Q: What can
I do for fleas?
A: While your pet is being groomed, they can receive a flea bath. This will kill any fleas that
are currently on your pet. After your pet is finished, a topical flea product can be applied. We use and recommend Frontline
Plus.
Q: Do you use tranquilizers on my pet?
A: Absolutely not! Tranquilizers can only be
administered by a qualified veterinarian.
