The Importance of Regular Pet Grooming

We all love our pets and want to do what is best for them. This includes the grooming process. Ideally, your pet should be groomed about once every 4 to 6 weeks in order to help their skin and coat stay clean and healthy. Don’t wait until it’s been nearly a year (or longer) to see to the needs of your beloved family pets!

The benefits of regular grooming:

  • Regular grooming keeps the pet’s skin and coat clean and healthy

  • Your pet has an opportunity to become familiar with the groomer and accustomed to the grooming process.

  • Regular grooming will help prevent their coat from becoming matted and uncomfortable.

  • Keeping toenails trimmed helps prevent overgrowth which can become uncomfortable for the pet.

  • Your regular groomer is good at recognizing changes in your pet’s general condition and can advise you of issues that may require a visit to your veterinarian.

  • Grooming helps your pet look, smell and feel better!
