Written by the groomer

My columns are based on thirty plus years of
grooming.  I hope to share a few of
the things  I have learned over the years.

Scrubbing Bubbles
We all know our dogs need a good bath now
and again.  I will tell you how to
accomplish this.  First thing is to buy a good
dog shampoo.  People shampoo is
not except able as it is not PH adjusted for
dogs, and not safe to get in your
dogs eyes.  Prolonged use of poor or incorrect
shampoo will lead to skin
problems.  Don't use products that contain allot
of perfume.  I know they smell
good, but most dogs react to all that perfume.  
At TNK we use a very high end
hypo allergic dog shampoo that contains no
perfume.  Before your wash your dog
you need to remove knots and mats.  The bath
will make the knots bigger tighter
and closer to the skin, making them harder to
remove later.
I wash all the dogs twice.  I scrub them with a
special bath brush.  The next
step is very important.  Rinse.  Rinse really,
really well.  When you think your
done rinse one more time.  No bubbles should
be left on your dog.  Towel and
dry.  If you don't dry your dog make sure you
keep them inside if cold so they
don't get chilled.
You can always leave this messy job for the
professional,  me.  I not only wash,
dry, de knot your dog.  I also include a nail trim
ear cleaning pad trimming and
personal area shaving.  Anal gland attention if
necessary.  For that  good smell
I use a special dog cologne if desired.
Lets recap
1.Choose a good dog shampoo
2.Take out knots and mats before bath
3.Rinse really well
4.Don't chill your dog
