Why is grooming your dog important?
We want all dogs to be healthy and while genetics, diet, exercise, attention and mental stimulation all play a big part, grooming is one important way you can directly affect your dog’s health. A well-groomed dog is likely to maintain a healthier coat, skin, eyes, ears, teeth, and even structure.
An obvious indicator of good health in a dog is their coat. It is the first thing people notice and may be the first thing to deteriorate when a dog suffers from a health problem.
Grooming also keeps you in contact with your dog so you can catch changes in the coat, skin or body more quickly.
A Visit to your professional groomer is an addition to the care you are providing for your dog. Regular brushing should be done by the owners in between grooming visits to keep coat tangle and matt free. If the owners simply don’t have the time we suggest more regular visits to your groomers even for just the brushing between full grooming sessions.
Your pet relies on you to keep him fit and healthy.

This is especially beneficial for older dogs and dogs suffering with anxiety and health problems.
