Ah, the delights of summer - evening strolls with your dog, weekend naps in the sun and
unfortunately, the return of annoying ticks. Despite their small size, ticks can pose a real threat to both humans and pets. Their ability to jump long distances makes your pet an easy target when enjoying the outdoors.

Ticks usually peak in the warmer months of summer, so it is important for both you and your dog to be familiar with regular and
routine protection.

HOW TO PREVENT TICKS & FLEAS:

TOPICAL TREATMENTS Topical treatments are applied to the pet's skin and can provide a month or more of protection against fleas and ticks.

ORAL MEDICATIONS These medications are administered by mouth or in food either monthly or three monthly and can work to kill fleas and ticks at various life stages.

TICK COLLARS Tick collars are infused with chemicals that kill ticks and fleas, providing another layer of defence, especially for pets that spend a lot of time outdoors or in high-risk areas. They are popular for summer camping trips to provide extra protection.

VACUUM REGULARLY This can help remove fleas, ticks, and their eggs from your home. Pay special attention to hidden nooks and pet resting areas.

WASH BEDDING Regularly wash your pet's bedding in hot water to kill any pests.

FLEA TRAPS These can help control an indoor infestation, but make sure to follow the instructions carefully.

KEEP YOUR LAWN TRIMMED Short grass leaves fewer places for ticks to hide.

How to Check for Ticks and Fleas In-Between Grooms:

REGULAR INSPECTION: Regularly inspect your dog for ticks and fleas, especially after they have been outside in areas where these parasites are prevalent. Focus on areas where ticks and fleas are likely to hide, such as:

🐾Inside and behind the ears
🐾Around the neck
🐾Between the toes
🐾 Under the armpits
🐾Around the tail and groin area

If you find a tick on your dog, remove it promptly and safely using a Tick Twister.
*Firstly, trim the hair around the tick if required.
*Insert the tick twister underneath and twist
upward with steady, even pressure.
*Clean the bite area with Active silver antiseptic spray and wash your hands thoroughly.
*Dispose of the tick by placing it in alcohol,
sealing it in a bag, or flushing it down the toilet.

✨ £2 Price Increase Announcement ✨
✨ Effective April 6th ✨

To my loyal and valued clients/friends

As many of you know, I have put off increasing my prices as long as I possibly could but unfortunately due to the continuous rising costs of my suppliers, insurances, overheads and the general running of a small business. I have had to adapt to these rising costs and slightly increase my pricing to be able to sustain the salon and provide the best services/products/treatments I can.

I completely appreciate that we are all feeling the pinch due to the rising costs of living, so I still aim to keep the costs of my services competitive and at an affordable price so you can all still enjoy treating your VIP’s.

I hope you can all understand this necessity, and as always, I throughly appreciate your continued loyalty and support. Updated price list will be made available over the coming days, but on the whole prices are subject to a £2 increase.

If you need to cancel or reschedule your future appointments due to price increase I completely understand.

Love Lou xx

🦷‼ Plaque VS Tartar - Main Differences!
The main difference between plaque and tartar is their stage and hardness.

🔍 Plaque is the early, soft stage of dental buildup that can be brushed away.
🔍 Tartar is the hardened, more advanced stage that usually requires professional cleaning to remove in its later stages.

Let me explain further.
🔍 Plaque is a sticky, bio film that forms on the dog's teeth. It's made up of food particles, saliva, and bacteria.
Imagine a dog munching on their favourite treat. Bits of that treat mix with saliva and bacteria in their mouth, creating plaque.
It's the first stage of dental issues and can easily form after each meal.
If you've ever felt a slimy coating on your dog's teeth, that's plaque.

🔍 If Plaque is left untreated it combines with minerals in the mouth and forms a thicker harder layer called Tartar, also referred to as calculus, which is a hard, yellow or brown, deposit / buildup on the dog’s teeth and gum line.

🔍 If Plaque or tartar are left untreated this can lead to gum health issues, onset of Periodontal disease, infections, abscesses, tooth loss and other dental health issues.

The emmi-pet ultrasonic toothbrush is perfect solution for the oral care and prevention for dogs.
The emmi-pet is an ultrasonic toothbrush, silent and does not vibrate and uses ultrasonic waves and specially formulated toothpaste that creates millions of nano bubbles that work 12mm beneath the dogs gum line to remove bacteria and enable plaque and tartar from forming.

Emmi-Pet Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning is offered here in the salon, either as a stand alone treatment or as an add on to grooming appointments, if you would like to book your VIP in then drop us a message or give us a call.

TICK SEASON IS COMING !!

They’re blood 🩸 sucking parasites !!

Ticks are parasites that look like small spiders. They have 8 legs and a bulbous body, which fills with blood (so enlarges) as the tick feeds. They are typically found in areas with long grass, woodlands or areas with lots of wildlife.

They will bite dogs and latch on to feed.
The tick itself will be tiny when it first attaches to a dog, so easily missed by their owners. As it feeds its body swells with blood, making it look round and shiny. They can look pink, grey or purple-blue tinged. Many owners mistake them for skin tags or warts initially, so it’s important that you also check for ticks during grooming sessions. You should be able to see their legs near where they attach to the body.
If they’re not removed, ticks will fall off once they’re full of blood, leaving a tick bite mark on the skin of the dog. It will resemble a small red bump, a scab or a tiny wound and the skin might appear inflamed around the bite.

Dog tick diseases
Ticks can transmit diseases, known as tick-borne diseases. Some ticks in the UK carry Borrelia, which they transmit when they feed. This is the bacteria that causes Lyme disease (Borreliosis). Less commonly, they can also carry diseases that are newer to the UK, brought in by increased pet travel and imports. If a dog seems unwell after a tick bite, it’s really important you advise your client to take their dog to a vet as soon as possible for a check-up.

Lyme Disease In Dogs
Lyme disease is a serious bacterial infection, which needs prompt treatment. Symptoms to watch out for in dogs include lethargy, fever, poor appetite, enlarged lymph nodes (glands), lameness, and swollen joints. Many of these signs are non-specific, meaning they can also be caused by many other diseases. If you notice any of these symptoms in one of the dogs you groom, or an owner has mentioned any problems like this, they should take their pet to see a vet as soon as possible.

Dog tick removal
It’s really important to remove a tick safely and in the right way. Otherwise, you might increase the risk of infection, or leave the mouthparts stuck in the dog. When removing dog ticks you should never squeeze, crush or pull the tick.

Here’s how to get a tick off a dog:
The safest way to remove a tick is by using a little tick-removal tool. You can buy these at vet practices, online or in pet shops. You gently slide the tick removal device under the tick’s body and twist it in a clockwise direction, without pulling.
The tick will come loose and fall off. If you aren’t sure how to use the tool or you’re worried about removing ticks, it’s safest to advise the owner to book a consultation with a vet or vet nurse for them to do it..

What to do after removing a tick from a dog
Don’t try to pick up the tick with your hands, or it may attach to you! You can pick it up with tissue and carefully dispose of it, then remember to wash your hands.
Gently clean the dog’s skin where you removed the tick with an antiseptic wipe like ours, (which kills 99.999% of bacteria), a wash, or an easy-to-use disinfectant spray. Check the skin where the tick was attached, and if it looks like some of the tick or the tick’s mouthparts are still present, the owner should take the dog to be checked by a vet.
Owners need to monitor the area following removal. The small red bump that is left after a tick bite should disappear in a few days. If it looks red, swollen, or infected, or the dog becomes unwell, then they should contact a vet as soon as possible.

For those of you that weren’t aware, Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning for your VIP is available in the salon as an add on to your grooming appointment or booked separately.

Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning is an amazing treatment that not only freshens breath by killing nasty bacteria, but also removes plaque and tartar buildup without the need for your dog to be put under anaesthetic.

Ultrasonic cleaning is vibration and sound free so it suits most dogs providing they are not mouth shy (not liking anyone messing in their mouths).

For more information on our Emmi-Pet Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning Service please drop us a message or speak to us when next at the salon.

Yes it’s that time of year again - Shedding Season !

You may have noticed your beloved fury companion shedding more hair than normal. With the weather warming up, this results in an increase in loose hair found on flooring, clothing and furniture so why not treat them to a nice de-shedding groom here in the salon.

We use a combination of specifically designed products, all natural of course, from de-shedding shampoos to Mud Therapy Treatments.

Should you like more information or to book in then please drop up a message or call on 07540 635009…. In the meantime, happy vacuuming 🐾
