Grooming Services at Dr. Dave’s
A Spa Day for Your Dog
Is there anything more relaxing than a day at the spa? There’s something about being pampered and cared for that makes us feel refreshed, and something about looking better than makes us feel better. Did you know that the same is true for your pets? Having the dirt washed away, the mats removed, and the excess hair trimmed away makes a dog feel lighter, fresher, and just better in general. You can see it in the sassy prance as they leave the groomer with a new ‘do and perhaps a fresh bandanna or bow. At Dr. Dave’s Doggy Daycare, we understand this, and that’s why we offer a wide array of dog grooming services for your canine best friend.
Why is Grooming Good for Dogs?
Some dogs are not very enthusiastic about being groomed. If your dog is one of these, it is important to note that grooming is an important part of caring for your pet. A trip to the groomer is beneficial in many ways.
- Grooming can reduce stress. Some dogs find a trip to the groomer stressful, but the right groomer will create a calming environment, making the experience enjoyable with gentle techniques and positive reinforcement. At Dr. Dave’s, our staff is made up of pet lovers who have extensive experience and know how to make dogs feel at ease.
- Brushing and bathing is good for the coat. Brushing a dog helps remove loose hair, distributes natural oils to make the coat shine, and prevents matting. Baths are also important for a clean, healthy coat, and grooming experts know exactly which shampoo is best for each unique dog. At Dr. Dave’s, we even offer mud baths to address different coat and skin issues and help dogs feel their best.
- Trimming a dog’s nail helps with comfort and mobility. Dogs’ nails must be kept at an appropriate length, but nail trimming can be challenging. Professional groomers know how to trim dogs’ nails safely and effectively, and can even help you learn how to do it yourself if you’d prefer to do that.
- Cleaning the ears keeps them free of infection. Especially for long-eared dogs, keeping the ears free from dirt, debris, and wax can be difficult. Whether or not your dog has long ears, keeping the ears clean can help prevent infections. Regular grooming can help prevent costly vet bills for infected ears.
- Dental care is essential for a dog’s health. If a dog’s teeth are neglected, they can become painful and even impact the dog’s overall health. Pet groomers can brush your dog’s teeth, and can also give you guidance of dental care techniques and the best dog-specific toothpaste to use.
