๐พ Introducing sweet Gracie, showing off her fresh new look! Big shoutout to her pawrents for doing it right - they brought her in earlier this week for a Meet & Greet to help her feel comfortable in the salon before her big day. Thes pictures & video perfectly capture her sweet personality before and during her grooming session. Starting grooming experiences early is key to raising a happy, well-adjusted pup!
Why early grooming matters:
โข Puppies who are introduced to grooming between 3-16 weeks develop positive associations that last a lifetime
โข Regular grooming sessions help them get comfortable with handling, different tools, and new experiences
โข Early exposure reduces anxiety and makes future vet visits easier too
โข It's a great opportunity for socialization and building trust
Pro tip: Start with short, positive sessions at home - gentle brushing, touching paws, and lots of treats! Gradually work up to professional grooming appointments once you pup is fully vaccinated. Your future groomer (and pup!) will thank you! ๐
