Posted by Country Inn Kennel and Cattery on April 12th, 2017

Grooming has a great and positive impact on pets. It improves its cleanliness, gives it a feeling of wellbeing and also encourages family members to have greater contact with the pet.  It is ideal to start grooming your pet from the time it is a puppy. A puppy that is accustomed to grooming will be easier to handle as it grows older, especially when its ears needs to be cleaned or its nails clipped. 

Dogs love to be in physical contact with their masters

It has been proved that dogs encourage physical contact and the act of grooming gives the pets a sense of wellbeing. It helps to calm the dog improves its conduct, which is in sharp contrast with a dog that is kept in isolation, without human contact or grooming.

Grooming keeps pets’ coat healthy

Regularly brushing yourpets’ coat is like exfoliation. It removes the grime and dead hair that clog its pores.  A well brushed coat of hair keeps the dog in good spirits as it does not have to constantly scratch itself to reach out to the itch.  Matted hair gets separated improving blood and air circulation.  Dogs that are not properly groomed run the risk of developing sebaceous cysts.

Helps to intervene in issues at an early stage 

Regular grooming helps in identifying problems faced by pets.  Subtle difference in the coat of the dog, or foul odor from its ears will help in identifying problems at an early stage. This helps to treat the dog at the earliest and prevent it from manifesting to proportions that are difficult to handle. 

Trained groomers offer professional service

A trained groomer will take thorough care of pets by spending the right amount of time. Grooming at home, though being a good option to spend quality time with your pets, may sometimes not be comprehensive.  A professional groomer will give the pet total and undivided attention lifting the results and the experience.  It is also important to use the right accessories during grooming to avoid injury or a painful experience to the pets. Professional groomers are equipped with the right set of accessories to give a pain-free and enjoyable experience to your pets.
