I have gotten a few messages about dogs and skunks.

If your pup is skunked do NOT get them wet, by doing so you will actually make the skunk smell resistant to products as it's binds together to the skin proteins.

Instead...

🦨Make a paste using baking soda and I personally like dawn dish soap for this (normally I do not suggest dawn dish soap as it is a very strong degreaser) soak your DRY pet and let it sit.

🦨After roughly 30 minutes rinse and repeat.

🦨Finally shampoo and condition I usually recommend an oatmeal or aloe conditioner to help soothe the skin a bit.

If your pet is itching sometimes a medical cone is necessary so that they don't irritate the skin further.

Happy Saturday !

Currently we have limited spots available for September and October is already starting to fill. We have even had messages booking for December already so please make sure that we are booking in advance (at least 3 weeks at this time) even for nail trims.

Grooming Salon update. We have hit a bump in the road which has set a few things back time line wise. We will be offering house calls for the winter of 2025 even if the salon does open sooner.

We are still accepting new clients for weekdays only in the following areas; Sherwood park and Fort Saskatchewan.

If you are needing grooming done sooner I highly recommend reaching out to...

Kylee at Pawsitively Kreative

Or

Let's talk flooding !

❓️First off what is flooding ?

🐶Flooding is a method where you "forcefully expose the pet to stimuli that triggers it's fear." Example being holding a dryer at the dogs face as it continues to snap at the drier.

❓️What is the big deal? Why don't we use this method at Gracefulwhiskers?

🐶During this process your pet is no longer learning. They are in a fight vs flight mode. Showing them hey this isn't scary by holding it to them for the next 30 minutes is not teaching them anything.

🕷Think of it like a person with a spider phobia. If you leave a spider on them will they go oh see not scary ? Unlikely. It's more likely they try to shoo the spider off, run or even yell in fear. Now. We forcefully leave the spider on the same person. We hold them down as the spider crawls up. Likely this person will throw their head around, cry or yell. This is the same thing for your dog!

🐾As always we understand that there are many methods that may work for others, we do not judge others or tolerate hate on our page. 🐾
