Good grooming practices are essential for maintaining health and happiness for you and your dog.

There are many factors that will determine when is a good time to have your dog groomed, but the most common would be:

• the obvious – your dog hasn’t been bathed in a while and is dirty and stinky
• your dog’s hair is too long for you to maintain
• your dog has several mats
• your dog requires his/her nails cut
• your dog had an unfortunate encounter with a skunk

Whatever the reason, a grooming schedule is always a good idea!
