Tips and Advice

One sure-fire way to keep your pet's coat healthy and get the length you want from your groomer is to maintain your pet's coat between your visits to the groomer.

At Canine Design Inc., groomers charge extra for fleas, ticks, and matted pets. Grooming a matted dog takes a lot of time and energy for the groomer and is unpleasant for the animal. To avoid this hardship for your pet, brush before you bathe.

If the mat gets wet, the only recourse the groomer has when he comes in is to have your pet shaved down.
