🐾 MATTING ….THE HIDDEN PROBLEM 🐾

“But I brush my dog every day…”

This is something we hear a lot, and often owners genuinely are brushing their dogs. The problem is that many brushes only skim the surface, leaving knots and tangles tight against the skin where you can’t easily see them.

The photos below show the amount of matted coat removed from a dog that appeared fluffy on the outside. Underneath, the coat had become tightly compacted and uncomfortable.

Matting isn’t just a cosmetic issue. It can:
❌ Pull on the skin and cause pain
❌ Trap dirt, moisture and bacteria
❌ Hide sores, lumps and skin problems
❌ Restrict movement
❌ Make grooming appointments longer and more expensive

Just like we schedule our own hair and nail appointments, dogs benefit from being on a regular grooming schedule. Keeping on top of their coat means:
✅ A more comfortable dog
✅ Healthier skin and coat
✅ Shorter grooming appointments
✅ Less stress for your dog
✅ Lower grooming costs over time

The key is not just brushing the top layer, but brushing all the way down to the skin and maintaining a regular grooming routine that suits your dog’s coat type.

If you’re unsure whether you’re getting right to the root when brushing, ask at your next appointment and we’ll be happy to show you the best technique for your dog’s coat.

A little maintenance between grooms can prevent a lot of discomfort later. ❤️🐶
