Let's talk fleas
This post is not directed at anyone in particular. However, I have had 3 occasions in the last month where dogs have attended, and I have found fleas in their coat.
Whilst I appreciate as owners you may be treating your dog monthly, etc, it seems fleas this year are on steroids and are not being killed off by regular treatments.
Can I please ask you to check your dog thoroughly before attending appointments.
The effect of your dog attending with fleas is that I have to cancel any remaining clients for the day so I can flea fog the salon, wash all my equipment, uniform, and anything the fleas could get too.
As I am fully booked, this also means I have to reschedule dogs on my days off to keep up.
If you are concerned about fleas or any other creatures, please speak with your vet.
I am happy to examine your dog for fleas prior to them entering the salon if you are worried.
Thanks for all the support, as always.
