🚨Let’s talk about matting🚨
Matting is not a death sentence! It does happen, especially with our curly haired and double coated friends. On the surface, it could look put together but underneath it’s matted. I will ALWAYS call you if I feel like we need to shave shorter or just shave down and start over. My goal is to save what I can but to get those mats off your baby.
What happens over time with matting? Contusions/bruises will start to form over time under the mat as it pulls tighter at the skin. Depending on how short we have to go, we get you scheduled to come back in 8-10 weeks for another groom with a bath and trim 4-5 weeks out.
🌶️Sweet senior girl Pepper had some pretty serious matting, mostly on her legs and feet. But we were able to save the fur on top this time! She’ll be able to come back in a few weeks for a good hydrating bath & then a true groom in 9 weeks or so.😌 She’s like a whole new dog after her groom!❤️
