If you’re thinking about shaving your double coated dog, don’t! and here’s why! 1️⃣ Your dog has two coats, the under coat and the outer coat also called “guard hairs”. Guard hairs are what you touch when you pet your dog! and they do just that, they guard the dog from many things. Including sunburn, parasites like fleas and ticks, water and much more!! 💧have you ever taken your dog swimming and noticed that he dried much quicker than you thought he would? that’s because the guard hairs are designed to keep the water from soaking the undercoat of your dog! it essentially keeps your dog “dry”. this is also why after bathing a dog it takes longer to dry, because we force water to the under coat! 2️⃣ The under coat regulates the dogs body temperature. They blow their undercoat at least two times a year. The winter undercoat helps to keep them warm, and the summer undercoat helps to keep them cool. the undercoat is very important to keep on your dog! ➡️ What can you do to help your dog during the hot months? frequent bathing and brushing will help prevent undercoat build up so that excess heat isn’t held on the dogs body. Regular grooming to help the winter undercoat escape is very helpful, especially with older dogs! 3️⃣ Some skin conditions require the coat to be shaved, but it’s best to consult with your vet before asking your groomer to shave them! a healthy double coated dog does not need shaved. 💥lastly when shaving, you run the risk of making your dog shed more excessive, and causing permanent damage to the regrowth of the coat. 💥
One of my personal dogs: Chip
I’m pretty sure that Chip rolls in smelly things so that he can get that blow out massage after his bath because he’s bougie 🤪

May is officially full for me, all my customers have been so supportive and I love getting to know everyone’s dogs and seeing them on a regular basis.
Please know that June is a very busy month for me so Saturday appointments are very limited
as always, if you need your dog groomed but can’t be here for an available time slot, you’re welcome to drop off before work and pick up after work! please let me know in advance since I have limited kennel space 😁
I’m always up for trying new things, so if you have any ideas or photos of how you’d like your dog to look, let’s try it!
Can’t wait to see you in June 🥰
