PET GROOMING

Pet Grooming is great

Grooming is a vital part of the well-being and health of a dog which can improve their lifespan. All breeds require daily grooming, the amount of which depends on the breed, age, or health of the pet. Regular grooming helps to ensure the dog is healthy and comfortable.

The main reasons for daily grooming include:

• decreased chance of various health problems, such as thrush, scratches, and other skin problems
• and make the dog look pretty
• general cleanliness of the dog
• monitoring of the dog's health by checking for cuts, heat, swelling, lameness, or changes in temperament, all of which could be indicative of illness
• reducing infestation load of external parasites on skin.
