Had a super few days being back in the doggy world. 🐶
There little souls are incredibly beautiful and sensitive, I love working with each and everyone of them.
What to expect on their first appointment as I explain to every owner I take a lot of time to work with each doggy that visits. We have a little chat and focus on what I’m going to do for them. Before I even start there’s lots of connection so we can build up a trust before we begin.
It’s really important for your dog to feel safe and secure so we have a pleasant and enjoyable experience together.
When I groom I allow them to smell each piece of equipment so they have an understanding on what they are and know what we are using will not hurt them. 🥰
For the first appointment I will not cut them down too short this is because they can get really anxious if they don’t like the sound of something or the feeling of the equipment. I like to trim them with scissors for the first session to allow them to gain trust and for us to build a bond. This all helps with giving them the security and trust in what you are doing.
This is the same for nail cutting most dogs struggle when you go near there feet there little paws are super sensitive and they can get can really nervous. I cut a little off each time.
This really works wonders going nice and gentle, for myself as a groomer it’s all about building up the trust and connection so we can gain a friendship and enjoy our grooming session together. 🥰🐾
Over time they become more confident and know that where they are at is a safe place, each dog is different and it’s important for me to learn and allow them to feel safe and secure.
It’s all about getting to know them and for your dog know me to enjoy their personalities and temperaments. 🥰🐶🐾
