Did you know cutting a double coat could be very damaging? This we are discussing what to do about dogs with double coats with a few handy tidbits provided by our Lani Spaw. As always if you have further questions make sure to call or say hello, with the phone or email below! πŸ€™πŸ‘‡πŸΎ

To start... what is a double coat? A double-coated breed has two layers of coat: a top layer and an undercoat. The purpose of a double coat is to help keep a dog warm in the wintertime and cool in the summer.
Different types of dogs are double coated. Some examples are the Akita, Husky, German shepherd, Bernese Mountain dog, etc.
Our biggest grooming concern for double coats is shedding. A double coated breed will shed year-round, but twice a year will blow out their coat. Blowing out means they will shed
every strand of fur to make room for the appropriate fur for the upcoming season. Since they
have a topcoat and undercoat, when they begin shedding their hair often gets stuck
in-between the layers making shedding seem endless. 😱
How should you address shedding? If they are brought in every 6-8 weeks for grooming and are brushed during the week, shedding can be very minimal. If they are not
brushed out their fur can become compacted and matted. There are quite a few tools to help as well: undercoat rakes, combs, slicker brushes, rubber curry, furminator, etc. These depend on the different length and density of the coat; your groomer will know the perfect tool for your pup! πŸ•βœ¨
Tips for pets' parents of this coat type? Make sure to keep track of when they start
blowing their coat. If you bring your pet in for grooming when they first begin blowing
their coat, they still need to blow the rest of it with you brushing regularly.

Number of years in grooming?

I have been working with dogs for around 6 years and have been grooming for 5 years.

How long have you been at Aloha?

Around 9 months with many more to come!

What is your favorite part of the job?

I love to show off my skills and make your pups feel and look good. Grooming at Aloha has been amazing because it is very one on one and allows more time for me to learn the dogs’ preferences and personalities! I also love the flexibility of the job; having control of my schedule allows me to be able to spend quality time with my daughter, Lily!

What is your favorite breed to groom?

I love the poodles and oodle mixes!

Do you have a pet at home?

Yes! I have two cats, Colby and Onion and a poodle pup named Hoagie. We love a good food theme in our house! (Colby is Orange!)

What got you interested in Grooming?

I have always been interested in expression through hair and have had a deep love for animals since I was little picking up bugs in my grandma's garden. When I moved here, I had originally sought out to be a cosmetologist, I didn’t even know dog grooming was an option. When I learned I could combine my love of animals with my love of creative expression, it seemed like a dream come true! I can't imagine doing anything else and feel extremely grateful for the career I've been able to curate.

What pets do you have at home? My cat Minx 5, my Shiba Inu Nimbus 5, and my American Akita Boa 1.
What got you interested in grooming as a career? In all honesty I just thought it looked cool and easy (it’s not easy though) still I love it.

This weeks' is twice as fun! Our Lani Spaw Groomer Allie has some educational tips for Puppy Grooming, and we get to see what that looks like with our friend Zoe! Zoe received our Deluxe Groom Package.
✨ Grooming is an essential aspect of caring for a puppy, contributing to their overall health and well-being. Regular grooming keeps a puppy looking clean but also plays a crucial role in preventing a number of health issues. Understanding grooming schedules, training, and essential grooming tips can help pet owners ensure their puppies grow up happy and healthy.
✨A grooming schedule helps you keep your puppy on track! We recommend scheduling your puppy’s first groom around 12-16weeks of age, once they have had their Rabies, Distemper and Bordetella vaccines. It’s a good idea to schedule more appointments throughout the first year to give your puppy a good amount of exposure to grooming (scheduling every 4 weeks).
✨ Introducing grooming practices early in a puppy's life can help them become accustomed to the process, making it a positive experience. Gradual exposure to grooming tools and environments, combined with positive reinforcement, can ease a puppy's anxiety and foster cooperation. Parents are welcome (and encouraged) to bring their puppy’s favorite treats to grooming services.
✨There are a number of steps you can take at home to ensure your puppy has a great time at the groomers. Regularly brushing and combing increases their exposure to tools. Touching their feet, face, mouth, and ears also increases exposure and makes them more comfortable around the groomer and their tools. Our last tip is a reminder to keep a consistent grooming schedule for your pups, a schedule of at least 4 weeks apart, but no more than 6 weeks for the puppy’s first year starting at around 12-16 weeks of age.

Give us a call today to book your pet's next grooming appointment!🐩

Water Safety Tips for Pets 🌊🐾

Taking your pet to natural bodies of water like lakes and rivers can be a fun adventure, but it comes with its own set of risks. Here are some essential tips to keep your furry friends safe:

1. Check Water Conditions

Before allowing your pet to enter, ensure the water is safe. Check for strong currents, hazardous wildlife, and water quality advisories. Rapid currents can easily overwhelm pets, and contaminated water can lead to serious health issues.

2. Use a Pet Life Jacket

Even in natural bodies of water, a pet life jacket provides extra safety. They are especially helpful in preventing fatigue if your pet gets caught in a current or has to swim for an extended period.

3. Avoid Stagnant Water

Stagnant water can harbor harmful bacteria and parasites. Avoid letting your pet drink from or swim in stagnant ponds or slow-moving streams. Always carry fresh water for your pet to drink.

4. Rinse Off After Swimming

After your pet has been in natural water, rinse them off to remove any harmful substances, algae, or parasites that may be on their fur. This is particularly important if they’ve been in saltwater or water with high bacterial content.

5. Watch for Signs of Fatigue

Natural water bodies often require more effort to swim in than pools. Keep an eye on your pet for signs of fatigue, such as excessive panting, slowing down, or struggling to stay afloat. Give them plenty of breaks and ensure they rest.

Enjoy your outdoor adventures with your pets while keeping these safety tips in mind to ensure a fun and safe experience for everyone! 🐢🚀🌞
