What's the "SECRET" to "GROOMING" your "DOG" ???
Well?its not really a secret, but ha I got your attention. Are you ready for it, good old-fashioned H20 thats right water.
Im sure that one of the most commonly asked questions people have before purchasing a dog is what level of grooming is required for that particular breed. As grooming takes time and patience depending on your lifestyle and demands could seriously determine on the breed you choose. If you do lead a busy lifestyle like most of us, this article will give you some great tips to help grooming your dog and save you much needed time.
There are two types of dogs in this category the ones that like water and the ones that dont. In this article, we will be helping the pooches that need a little help getting there paws wet. Now as we start on our journey towards helping our canine friends overcome his / her fear of water we must and I repeat, we must be patient. We have to slowly introduce them to water in a positive environment for example if you live near a beach or river take them with you and play games and use a lot of encouraging techniques to prompt them to play in the shallows and make it fun so the dog relates water to a positive experience. Now that your dog has accepted water as friend not enemy we can start the bathing process and make him / her smell like a basket of roses.
WARNING what ever you do DO NOT throw your dog directly straight into the bath tub, slowly introduce him / her and talk them though the process, the sound of your voice will relax them and help them to accept what your asking of them. Remember positive experience reinforcement will help you to develop a stable happy dog. If in the event this process doesnt go to plan and your dog rejects the bathing experience you will have to start at the beginning and help him build his / her confidence. Now that your dog is relaxed in the bath tub just take your time and massage your fingers through his body and he / she will find this very soothing, at the same time talking them though the process trying not to get water or soap suds in there eyes or ear region as this may irritate them and could also cause ear infections, so just use adequate water in this area. We dont want them to think that were trying to drown them ha ha ha !!! If there is one main important point that you can take away with you from this article is that you must have patience. Also remember that using the correct brushes will result in a better groomed pet which we will discuss in our next article A good groomer never blames his brushes?if you have any questions about any of these techniques we invite you to feel free to contact us via our details on our website at the bottom of the page.
So remember grooming your pet can give you and your pet a lot of pleasure and it can be an activity the whole family can get involved with so when your pet looks his / her best at the park or just when youre out and about you can be proud and so can he/she?br>
All the best from the team at Phoopups.
