Below, our veterinarian answers some frequently asked questions to help you understand the benefits of professional pet grooming.

The frequency of grooming depends on factors such as your dog’s breed, living conditions, and lifestyle. Dogs with specific haircuts, like poodles, cocker spaniels, and Shih Tzus, may need grooming every four to six weeks. Dogs with short, shedding hair can be groomed less frequently, around every eight to 12 weeks, as long as they receive regular brushing.

 

Grooming sessions typically take two to four hours, depending on your pet’s breed and the desired haircut. We prioritize quality over speed to ensure a thorough and precise grooming experience.

 

Bathing is an integral part of the grooming process. We wash and dry your pet before proceeding with the haircut. We use high-quality products for shampooing and conditioning to minimize the risk of allergies or skin irritations.

 

We recommend starting grooming sessions for puppies after they have completed their first series of vaccinations, usually around 12 to 16 weeks of age. The earlier your puppy begins grooming, the sooner they can become familiar with the process and develop a positive association with it.

 

Matted hair can be detrimental to your dog’s skin health. After assessing your pet’s fur, our groomer will determine the best approach. If possible, we will gently remove the tangles to preserve the coat. However, if matting is severe, we may need to trim the hair short. Our groomer will discuss the options with you after evaluating your pet.

Bringing your pet to a local groomer offers convenience, cost-effectiveness, and reduces stress and anxiety for your pet. Call to schedule your pet grooming in Lewisburg today!
