🎆🐾 Keeping Your Dog Calm This Bonfire Night 🐾🎆

Bonfire Night can be magical for us, but the loud bangs and flashes can be scary for our dogs. Here are some simple ways to help keep your pup safe and relaxed:

✨ Create a safe space – set up a cosy corner with their bed, blankets, and favourite toys.
✨ Close curtains & put on background noise – TV or music can help drown out fireworks.
✨ Stay calm yourself – dogs pick up on our emotions, so keep your energy relaxed.
✨ Try calming aids – like the Safety Snooze for Dogs 🐶💤. It reduces noise around the ears and helps anxious dogs feel secure (plus, it doubles as a drying aid after bath time!).

This Bonfire Night, let’s put our dogs’ comfort first. 💕🐾

👉What happens to a dog’s skin and coat when they age?

➡With advancing age, several changes occur in the skin and hair of dogs. Cellular degeneration (atrophy) increases in both the epidermis and dermis which are the top two layers of the skin. The skin loses collagen which is the elastic property of skin making it less pliable. The degeneration of the cells in the epidermis and the dermis breaks down the calcium present within, then, with no place to go the calcium ends up in the basal layer of the skin at the bottom, which is where new hair and skin is made.

➡Calcium has a direct effect on the production of melanin (melanocytes) which are the colour producing cells in hair. Increased calcium reduces the production of the melanin in the hair follicle resulting in the production of white hair.

➡The loss of elasticity is often accompanied by thickening of the outer layer of the skin and follicles (hyperkeratosis), together with changes in sebum production in older animals and can result in scaly skin and cause the hair coat to become dry and dull.

➡Follicles may also degenerate resulting in areas of hair loss.

➡Certain cells within the follicles regulate skin and hair growth. These cells don’t replicate as effectively as dogs age and become abnormally concentrated leading to fatty lumps (lipomas) and sometimes unfortunately cancer.

Regular brushing helps stimulate the skin renewal process and remove itching caused by dead skin. Use a conditioning shampoo to seal the skin to reduce moisture loss and a conditioning spray to reduce breakage.

👉Be the grooming professional and explain this to your owners.
