GROOMING
Proper grooming is essential to your dog's health and happiness. Keeping your dog's coat brushed and free of mats allows their skin to breathe and avoids irritation or sores from developing. Trimming your dog's nails regularly prevents cracking or splitting, which can be quite painful. The grooming process is also a great chance for socialization and gentle handling that most dogs learn to enjoy.
Regular grooming keeps your dog looking and feeling it's best, while strengthening the bond between you through this repetitious pampering ritual. Maintaining good grooming habits prevents painful health issues that can surface later on and it's also the perfect time to check for parasites like fleas and ticks.
