Dial a Dog Wash Dudley’s tips for grooming at home between visits

Grooming your pet at home will keep its coat healthy and well maintained in between Dial a Dog Wash Dudley’s visits. Here are our tips for ensuring grooming is stress free and enjoyable for your dog.

1. Be sure to brush out the coat first. If the coat is in good condition, use a slicker brush. Be careful never to brush too hard as this can cause ‘brush burn’.
2. Never try to de-matt or cut out knots yourself using scissors – it is easy to cut too close and pierce the skin.
3. Please seek advice from Dial a Dog Wash Dudley if you are going to shampoo your dog – never use human or baby shampoo. We always recommend you use a pet formulated shampoo that will enhance the moisture and health of the coat. We only use chemical free, natural products.
4. Never bath a dog with matted hair as this only tightens matts and makes them harder to remove for our groomers. Skin may also become irritated by residual damp and shampoo in the matts.
5. Regular visits from Dial a Dog Wash Dudley are the best way to maintain your dog’s coat.
