When you’re nervous about getting groomed but then realise this isn’t so bad!
What is the Key to a relaxed groom?
Let the dog take the lead, not the other way around!
Most dogs don’t need to be strained - if they want to sit let them sit ; if they need a break, give them one. Trusting their groomer is key and trust doesn’t build if you have to force a dog into anything!

Everyone meet Linda the sweetest Kitten 🥰
👑 Sphynx cats may not have fur, but that doesn’t mean they’re low maintenance! Their unique skin needs special attention to stay clean and healthy. Here’s how you can keep your Sphynx feeling fresh and fabulous:
✨ Weekly Baths
Since Sphynx cats don’t have fur to absorb oils, their skin gets oily fast! Bath your Sphynx every 1-2 weeks using gentle, cat-safe shampoo to avoid irritation. Remember to rinse well and keep them cozy and warm afterward!
✨ Skin Folds Care
Make sure to clean between their cute skin folds to prevent dirt buildup and irritation. Use a damp cloth for a gentle cleanse between baths. No fur = extra care for those folds!
✨ Ear Cleaning
Sphynx ears produce more wax than other breeds. Use a soft cotton pad with a pet-safe cleaner to gently wipe their ears weekly, avoiding going too deep.
✨ Moisturising Their Skin
Keep your Sphynx’s skin hydrated! Use a tiny amount of pure coconut oil or pet-safe moisturiser after baths to keep their skin soft and smooth. Avoid human lotions, as they may contain harmful ingredients.
✨ Nail Care
Their nails tend to build up oils and dirt, so clean them regularly and trim them to keep your kitty happy and healthy.
🧸When you bring in your poodle but take home a Teddy bear.
This was @mr.hugo.toy.poodle first big boy groom with us! so it’s by no means perfect but we will see him again in a few weeks and will continue to work on training him to stay still during grooms.
Training a puppy for a groom takes time as it needs to be done in a calm comfortable and positive manner here.
Keeping your puppy on a groom schedule from early on is really important to ensure a safe and stress free grooming life!
It also promotes a tangle free and healthy coat which is not only essential for your puppy’s overall health it also makes for really cute hair cuts! #teddybear

Did you know these 3 benefits of regular, professional cat grooming?! 🐈
1. Regular grooming will stimulate the skin, the largest organ in the cat’s body.
2. Regular grooming eradicates parasites, reduces moulting, reduces matting. It also degreases and reduces fur balls.
3. Often groomers are the first to spot any health issues and concerns relating to your cats.
False truth ❌: It’s not true that cats groom themselves to keep their coats in good condition, they do it because they are reassuring themselves with self-licking. Self-licking applies a lot of saliva onto the coat and with the rough tongues of cats, this can take out dead hair and cause your cat uncomfortable hairballs.

When your pup cup is just that good! #noordinarypupcup
Creating a strong bond between your furry friend and their groomer is vital, especially if your pup tends to get nervous during grooming sessions. 🐶✨
When your dog trusts their groomer, it can make all the difference in their grooming experience. A bond built on trust ensures that your pet feels safe, understood, and ultimately, less stressed during their appointment. 🌟
Encourage this relationship by introducing your dog to their groomer gradually, allowing them time to sniff around and get familiar. Positive reinforcement, patience, and consistency are key ingredients in nurturing this trust. 🤝💕
Remember, a good groomer would never do a full groom session on a nervous dog straight away and they will take their time to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable and less stressed during their grooms.

A little head massage during their bath goes a long way!
Did you know Applying pressure to specific points on your dog’s head, neck, and ears can have positive effects on its entire body, as the nerves in these areas are interconnected. Giving your dog a gentle head massage may alleviate stress, anxiety, and fatigue while promoting their overall well-being.
