🌞🐾 It’s summer!! 🌞🐾

Keep your furry friends cool and comfy with these tips:

1. Regular Brushing: Shedding is natural, especially in summer(and especially in Texas). Regular brushing helps remove loose fur and keeps your dog’s coat shiny and tangle-free.

2. Stay Cool with a Trim: Depending on your dog’s breed, a summer trim can help them stay cool. Just be cautious not to cut too short, as their coat also protects against sunburn.

3. Hydration is Key: Ensure your pup stays hydrated. A well-hydrated dog has healthier skin and fur!

4. Check for Ticks and Fleas: Summer is peak season for these pests. Regularly check your dog’s coat and use preventative treatments.

5. Professional Grooming: Regular professional grooming keeps your dog’s coat in top shape.

📸 In the photo, a double-coated dog is being deshed using techniques called, handstripping and carding. Tools like a pumice stone and undercoat rake (green&white tool) help keep the coat healthy and maintained.

Fact: Handstripping maintains the coat’s texture and health, perfect for wire and double-coated breeds.

Remember, a well-groomed dog is a happy dog!

I've been a bit quiet lately, but it's all for a great reason! I'm super excited to let you know that I’ve been working hard to form the Texas Professional Pet Groomers Association (TPPGA) with some amazing industry leaders. It's an awesome opportunity to work with a fantastic team and help raise the bar for pet grooming.

On top of that, I’m working on securing a new space so I can offer even more great services for your wonderful pets. Stay tuned for more updates!

Thanks so much for your support and patience while I’ve been busy with these exciting new projects. I can’t wait to share more with you soon!

🐾 Important Health Update for Pet Parents 🐾

In light of the recent news articles about a respiratory virus affecting our furry friends, I want to reassure you about the precautions I'm taking and how beneficial one-on-one sessions can be at a time like this.

Respiratory viruses in dogs spread through close contact, like sneezing or coughing, and can also linger in the environment. To mitigate any potential risk, I ensure each session is exclusively one-on-one, reducing the chances of transmission between dogs.

Additionally, my cleaning and sanitation protocols between sessions are meticulous. I use veterinary-recommended disinfectants on all surfaces and equipment to eliminate any possible traces of contagions, prioritizing your pet's health and safety.

It's essential for pet owners to be cautious when their dogs are around other dogs or in places where multiple dogs gather. These viruses can spread rapidly in such environments. I recommend avoiding these situations or, if unavoidable, ensuring your dog is up-to-date on vaccinations and taking necessary precautions recommended by your vet.

Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I'm dedicated to providing a safe and clean environment for every furry client. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any concerns or questions. Together, we can keep our beloved companions happy and healthy!
