The Benefits of Regular Grooming for Your Dog's Health and Well-being

 

When you have a dog, you should have it regularly groomed. It goes beyond just having them look good, though. There are other reasons. 

Regular Grooming Will Help Your Dog’s Overall Smell and Hygiene

Over the course of time, dead skin and other things will build up on your dog. The groomer will be sure to use dog grooming cages that are suitable for your pet, and they will be able to get all of that off. As a result, they will also smell much better, which will be pleasing for both you and the dog. 

They Will Be Checked and Treated For Fleas

Fleas are a very annoying part of having a dog. You want to minimize the amount of time that those little pests are on your pooch’s skin. The groomer will be able to check for fleas and their eggs. Regular sessions can get rid of them, but if you want them gone for good, ask the groomer if they have any flea treatment - you might have to pay an extra fee. 

Groomers Can Spot Skin and Health Issues

Just like the hair on our heads, a dog’s fur or hair can cover up some issues that only a groomer’s clippers can reveal. They can see if there are any rashes or even some bumps or lumps that might reveal a health problem that might need a vet visit. If you do this regularly, these conditions might be caught very early on. 

Regular Grooming Can Help Prevent Ear Infections

Things build up in your dog’s ears and it can result in ear infections. When you bring in your dog for a cleaning, the groomer can also get rid of the gunk that is in their ears. Hair can also grow in the ears and that is also another cause of ear infections - trimming that hair can help your dog keep from going deaf. 

They Can Trim Your Dog’s Nails

Having long nails can be very uncomfortable for your dog. Even the simple act of walking around can become very painful. If not taken care of, they can develop bad posture habits to compensate or even have bone deformations. If you happen to spot that their nails are touching the ground when they are standing, then they need to see the groomer. 

They Can Keep Your Dog’s Coat Looking Shiny and Healthy

While nutrition plays a part in how their coat looks, regular brushing and washing can make them look spectacular. This is partly because brushing alone can spread natural oils. 

Regular Grooming Will Keep Your Dog’s Fur From Getting Matted

If your dog has medium-to-long hair, there is always a chance that parts of it will get matted. That can be very painful for them. So, bringing them to a groomer regularly is a good idea when it comes to keeping them from getting tangled up. 

As you can see, there are many benefits of bringing your dog in for regular grooming. If you do this, you will have a happy, healthy dog for a long time.

Project: Repair Exterior Trim
They did the job in a single day (a real surprise for me) and painting was included in the bid if I supplied the paint. I am so pleased, I plan to get them to do another job in the near future.
