one necessity.You can swing either way,you can do it yourself or turn to a

are very bone chilling.You can use this article as a guide as to be on the
look out for some of the red flags that may show up in the process especially
the very first time you visit a professional groomer.

Remember About First Impressions...

On your first visit,have the groomer to give you a little tour of the grooming
area so this way you can size up the equipment and to make sure the area is
clean and suitable for your pet.Simple things like seeing that there is clean
water and cages.Check to make sure that the area is not soiled or nasty(you
don't want your pet to come out looking sick or shabby or worse than it was
before you took him there).You don't need your catching transmittable
diseases.Make sure there are clean towels and blankets plus there should be
nice clean soft area for your pet to lie down.One of the most popular red
flags to look for is multiple color of hairs on the floor because that is a
tell tale sign that the groomer is not sanitizing between animals.Take a look
at their clippers to make sure they are sanitized and make sure there are hair
and blood free.If you see any of these red flags you should consider looking
at another groomer.

Remember If They Don't Look Like An Expert,They May Not Be An Expert!!!

Notice how the pet groomer expert is dressed.This can be very important
because if the expert isn't dressed properly then they just may not be as
sanitary as they may to be.(Blood or Stain on clothes can be a bad sign).After
all you want your pet to be handle in a very clean and fashionable way!
Remember this is the reason you took it there in the first place.Notice how
the groomer may interact with your pet whether they are mild mannered or the
way they talk to your animal is also important.Remember that when you leave
your pet with the expert groomer you want to make sure they are in good hands.

The Proper Way to Bathe Your House Pet...

When bathing your pet, make sure the environment is slip free. Placing a rubber mat in the tub or sink is key to making your pet feel secure. Placing

one on the floor is also necessary for your safety to prevent slippage. If
you choose to bathe your pet outdoors, make sure the area is secure so if

they break away from you they won't run into the street or otherwise meet any harm.

When choosing shampoo, always get one specially formulated for your type of

pet. These types of shampoo are mild and won't strip your pets coat of

essential oils. If you must use shampoo made for humans, try to use one

meant for infants. It should also be unscented.

Bathing your dog with perfumed shampoo with probably make him want roll in

the dirt to get rid of the scent. You should give your pet a thorough

brushing before bathing. Your pet will be relaxed and you will get rid
of the loose hair that can clog your drain. This will also have a relaxing

effect on you.

Remember To Test The WaterTemp...

The water you use should be lukewarm, not hot. Hot water can burn your pets

sensitive skin, and cold water can chill your pet. If using a tub, don't

fill the tub full of water. Too much water can make your pet nervous and
also increase the amount of water splashed on the floor. Less is more.
If using a hose, be careful of your pets ears, noses and mouths. Getting

water in these areas will not be pleasant for your pet. When you start

lathering the shampoo, start just behind your pets ears and work towards the

pets tail using a circular motion. Once you complete the massage, rinse
your pet thoroughly. Any soap left in their coat will
irritate their skin causing them to scratch. This could also lead to your
treating your pet for hot spots.

BE GENTLE!!!

Use a large towel to dry them off, giving yourself time
to play and cuddle with your best friend. Show them you
love them and that bath time can be fun.
