Give Your Dog a Summer Cut
Heavy-coated dogs will not appreciate the spikes in the mercury that are expected this summer. Along with them, pets that take to swimming or running through the woods in search of burrs can benefit from wearing lighter coats in the summer. Bring your furry friend to the Paradise Elite Grooming Spa for a Summer Cut or a Low Shed Groom that includes a Deluxe bath with special low-shedding shampoo - he'll love you for it!! Call 728-2200 for an appointment.

Grooming Tip: Hair Matts
Matting is a condition that seems to be quite prevalent right now. Brushing (or combing for dogs with longer coats) should be continued between grooming appointments to save your Lhasa Apso from ending up looking like a Hairless Chinese Crested. Dogs sometimes have to be shaved completely because the matting is so far advanced that it's just too stressful on the dog to put it through the de-matting process. Static electricity is in the air this time of year, plus rolling around on carpeted floors, can really accelerate the matting process. Sprays, available at pet stores, can help reduce the static electricity. Do not bathe a matted dog; it will only make the matts worse and harder to remove because matts will tighten and shrink up as they dry. Daily brushing also keeps the hair & skin healthy.

Grooming Cut 101: The "Pad Shave". Many of you have
had your dog's pads shaved and didn't even know it. Every dog lucky enough to come to our grooming salon has been treated to a pad shave. Most dogs that grow long hair also grow excessive hair between their toes and around their pads. We shave pads for several reasons: to remove any mats, to remove debris, to reduce the amount of dirt attached to the bottom of the dog's feet, and to lower the chances of something sharp getting stuck in their paws. Shaved pads track much less dirt & dander into your car and home, and dogs are less likely to lick shaved paws.
Paradise Grooming offers 11 luxuriating & moisturizing shampoo choices for bath selections. Bring your dog in for a bath for skin conditions, hair conditions, or maybe just for a new scent that you'll fall in love with! A Pad Shave (see above) is a commonly requested service. It takes about 10 minutes and can be added to any bath service for just $10.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
GROOMING QUESTIONS.....
Why should I have my dog groomed?
Most pet owners confuse "grooming" with "clipping."
Clipping is only one procedure in the grooming process.
Grooming also includes combing and brushing, cutting
nails, plucking hair from ears and parasite control.
Although the most
obvious result of these procedures is an improved
appearance, the major benefits to your pet are increased
comfort and social acceptability and perhaps even improved
health.
Do all dogs need grooming?
All dogs need an occasional bath, but it is more important
to keep your dog combed and brushed, especially if your
dog has long hair. Matted hair can easily cause skin
problems and unnecessary discomfort for your pet. If
neglected for too long, it might eventually necessitate a
lengthy grooming session, which could be uncomfortable for
your pet and expensive for your. Regular brushing,
on the other hand, improves your dog's skin tone and
circulation, and makes the coat healthier and more
attractive.
My dog has a very strong odor.
Bathing doesn't seem to help. Why?
It's possible that your dog's teeth, ears, or anal sacs
are responsible for the problem. Your groomer will
be able to help you to determine the nature of the problem
and refer you to your veterinarian if necessary.
What are anal glands?
They are small sacs located on either side of the rectum.
They sometimes need to be expressed or emptied. Some
groomers accomplish this as a part of the grooming
service. If this is the cause of our dog's odor
problem, bathing alone will not solve it. Your
groomer will be happy to explain this procedure in more
detail.
My dog scratches all the time, but I
can't find any fleas on her. What's the problem?
Scratching is often caused by dry skin and not fleas.
This could be the result of excessive bathing, dry
climate, nutritional deficiency, food allergies, or the
the wrong type of shampoo. Discuss this problem with
your groomer or veterinarian.
Why do my dog's nails get so long?
Because your dog doesn't walk on hard surfaces often
enough to keep them worn down. You should have them
checked at least once a month. Walking on pavement
will help wear them down naturally.
I have my dog clipped every six months,
but she doesn't look as pretty as my neighbor's dog.
Is that my groomer's fault? Your
neighbor probably has regular six to eight week
appointments with the groomer, and keeps the dog well
brushed between appointments. This kind of regular
attention enables the groomer to devote more time and
effort to beautifying the dog, rather than to de-matting
and trying to salvage a neglected coat.
