Plucking hair from the ears of dogs can offer several significant benefits, contributing to their overall health and well-being. Many dogs, especially those with long or dense ear hair, are prone to accumulating wax, debris, and moisture in their ear canals. This environment can become a breeding ground for bacteria and yeast, leading to painful and sometimes chronic ear infections.

By regularly plucking hair from the ears, pet owners can help keep the ear canals clean and reduce the risk of infections. Check and clean your dog's ears weekly regardless of whether they're a breed with or without ear hair.

As a groomer, it is important to remove most of the hair or at least as much as the dog will tolerate in one sitting. Then it needs to be cleaned with a quality product like Iv San Bernards Ear Cleaner. Any infection or concerns are always communicated to the client for further investigation and treatment by a Vet.

Maintaining the hydration of long-haired dogs is essential to their overall health and appearance, and using high-quality products like those from Iv San Bernard can make a significant difference. Long hair on dogs is prone to tangling, matting, and breakage, which can lead to discomfort and even skin issues if not properly cared for. Hydrating the hair ensures that it remains supple and resilient, reducing the likelihood of these problems. Iv San Bernard products are specifically formulated to address the unique needs of canine coats, offering deep hydration that penetrates the hair shaft and nourishes the skin beneath.

Iv San Bernard's range of pet care products includes shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments that are designed to deliver optimal moisture and nutrients. These products are enriched with natural ingredients like aloe vera, jojoba oil, and keratin, which work together to strengthen the hair and maintain its natural lustre. Regular use of these products not only keeps the hair hydrated but also enhances its elasticity, making it easier to manage and groom. This is important for long-haired breeds, whose coats can quickly become unmanageable without proper care.

My favourite long-hair products are

ISB Traditional Apple 🍏
ISB Fruit of the Groomer PassionFruit 🍈
ISB RingLine Green Caviar 🐶
ISB The Best Line Pegasus 👌

Short-coated dogs, often adored for their sleek fur and minimal grooming requirements, still need a regular and thoughtful grooming routine to maintain healthy skin and vibrant coat. Short coated dogs need shampoos and conditioners designed especially for their coat type which require more oils to assist in protecting their skin and coat.

My favourite Iv San Bernard Shampoos & Conditioners for short coats are:

🍋Traditional Lemon

🍒Fruit Of the Groomer Black Cherry

👍The Best Line Cassiopeia

🖤Black Passion

PEPSI is one of my many long distance clients. Her family drives a 230km round trip, with the in-laws dogs too.
I am so grateful to all my clients who happily look at it as "just a day out". Some bring their knitting, their bookwork or just a book, some will go off and do shopping in the next town, and some will sit and have a chat.
I appreciate you all, thank you ❤🐾😊

The medium coat is like a diva that craves proteins and minerals to keep its fur game strong. The secret recipe? Balancing the undercoat with the primary coat for that sweet protection mix. Picture this: the Arrector pili muscle struts the hair at a sassy 40° angle, while the topcoat rules the runway, maintaining the skin's temperature and oil-spreading duties. Unlike the short coat, this medium marvel isn't an oil addict, but it sure loves its minerals!

As professional Dog Groomers, we'd rather not give these fluffy double-coated breeds a short back & sides as it alters their fur's natural charm. But hey, we get it, sometimes a trim is unavoidable.

Considering a fluffy double-coated furball? Buckle up for a whirlwind of grooming and care - it's a hairy situation!

Medium coat products I recommend include:

🍌ISB BANANA Traditional Line

🐝ISB ORION The Best Line

🍊ISB ORANGE or GRAPEFRUIT Fruit Of The Groomer Line

Deshedding your pet in the bath can be a great way to minimize shedding around your home. Bathing your pet helps to loosen and remove excess fur, making the deshedding process more efficient. It also allows you to contain the mess within the bath area, making cleanup easier. Additionally, wet fur tends to clump together, making it easier to remove compared to dry fur. Just be sure to use a pet-safe deshedding tool and gentle shampoo to make the experience comfortable and effective for your furry friend.

WHAT IS OZONE
Ozone (O3) is a molecule of oxygen (O2) that contains an additional oxygen atom. Its natural occurrence arises from the reaction of oxygen molecules (O2) in the Earth's upper atmosphere with ultraviolet rays from the sun, creating the vital ozone layer. Alternatively, ozone can be generated artificially using an ozone generator or through an electrical discharge like lightning. Ozone is a potent and swift oxidant that can break down bacteria, mold, yeast spores, organic matter, and viruses. The most common use of ozone is for bacterial disinfection and viral inactivation. Iv San Bernard has extensively researched, tested, and developed a safe ozone delivery system designed specifically for pets.

HOW CAN IT HELP MY PET?
Ozone is incorporated with Therapy for a range of skin conditions. It is also beneficial to relieve arthritis, muscle soreness and for stress. Weekly sessions of Ozone Therapy plus Ginkgo Oil can be of great benefit and help increase vitality and energy in older dogs making them feel more active and youthful.

Listen up, pup parents! Here's a top dog tip: most woofers need a good soak once a month. But, let's not bark up the wrong tree; this can vary depending on their breed, how much they play, and their wag-tastic lifestyle. For instance, if your furry friend loves sniffing flowers or rolling in the mud, they might need to get sudsy more often than those whose paws rarely touch grass. And, for doggos with long, fluffy coats or wrinkly skin, they might need to doggy paddle in the tub a little more frequently to avoid nasty tangles or skin issues.
