“In the early months, your puppy is like a sponge. The more
they experience, the more they get accustomed to and
comfortable with.
You basically help your puppy on their journey to be a
happy, confident dog who tackles all situations without fear.
A visit to the groomers is part of that journey. Depending on
the breed, your dog will have a lifelong relationship with
grooming, so they need to be happy and confident when
they visit.
They need to get used to the noises of the clippers, the dryer,
and the shower. They need to get used to someone handling
their feet, their ears, touching around their eyes.
Doing this at an early age (12 weeks onwards) means that
when it finally is time for that first big boy haircut (usually by
6 months old), they’re confident and not scared.”
Contact me to get your puppy booked in, or pass this information on to anyone you know that is getting a puppy.
Thanks
