🐾 Why Keeping Your Dog’s Nails Short is SO Important! 🐾

Why do short nails matter? ✂️💅🏼
👉 Better posture & movement – Long nails force your dog to walk differently which can lead to joint pain and arthritis over time.
👉 No slipping & sliding – Overgrown nails make it harder for dogs to grip the floor properly, which can cause slips and injuries.
👉 Prevents painful breaks – When nails get too long, they can snag and split, leading to painful infections (ouch!).
How short should they be?

🐶 Your dog’s nails should not touch the ground when they’re standing. If you hear a “click-click” when they walk on hard floors, it’s time for a trim!
What’s the deal with the quick?
Inside every nail is something called the quick—it’s a blood vessel and nerve, so if it gets cut, it bleeds (and hurts!). The longer the nails grow, the longer the quick gets, making it harder to keep them short.

💡 Regular trims help the quick recede so that we can keep the nails at a healthy length over time!

💖 Need a nail trim for your pup? I can take care of that during your grooming session! Short, healthy nails = happy, comfy paws.

Brushing Your Doodle 101: Keep the Fluff Mat-Free 🐾✨

Let’s talk about your doodle’s gorgeous coat—it’s cute, it’s fluffy, but it needs WORK to stay tangle-free! 🌀 If brushing feels like a struggle, don’t worry—you’re not alone and I’ve got your back! 💪

Here’s how to brush your doodle like a pro:
🛠 Tool of the trade: A slicker brush is your BFF! It gets deep into that curly coat to remove tangles and prevent mats.
🧼 The technique: Brush layer by layer. Don’t just swipe over the top—lift small sections and start at the bottom, working your way up.
⚠️ Don’t forget the trouble spots! The legs, tail, behind the ears, and underarms are mat magnets! Most people brush the body and skip these areas, but they’re where mats form first.
🚨 Why it matters: Mats can be painful for your doodle and lead to skin problems. Removing mats can also be painful and it puts your dog at risk of nicks or abrasions. Regular brushing keeps them comfy and looking fabulous!
💡 Not a fan of brushing? No judgment here!
✂️ Keep your doodle in a shorter cut for easy maintenance.
📅 Schedule a full groom every 4-6 weeks with me to ensure they stay mat-free and healthy.

DM me to book your doodle’s next spa day!
