FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT
Why is dog grooming important?
Dog grooming plays an important role in the overall health and well-being of your furry friend. Regular grooming sessions help maintain a clean coat, prevent matting and tangling, and promote healthy skin. Having your dog groomed by one of our professional groomers can also help identify early signs of skin issues, parasites, or health concerns.
How often should you bathe your dog?
How often you bathe your dog depends on several factors, including their breed, activity level, and individual needs. Breeds with oily coats may require more frequent baths, while others with water-resistant coats may need fewer baths. Overbathing can strip a dog’s skin of natural oils, so it’s essential to strike a balance based on your dog’s specific requirements. Regular brushing can also help maintain a clean coat between baths. You can consult with your veterinarian or a professional groomer for guidance on the ideal bathing schedule for your dog.
