1. Brush the Coat Regularly
Frequent brushing removes loose hair, prevents mats, and distributes natural oils throughout the coat. For double‑coat breeds, use a slicker brush or a de‑shedding tool at least 3–4 times a week.
2. Trim Nails Carefully
Overgrown nails can cause joint pain and affect gait. Trim only the tip—stop when you see the quick (the pink inner part). If you’re unsure, ask a professional to show you the safe distance.
3. Clean Ears Weekly
Dogs with floppy ears are prone to infections. Gently wipe the outer ear with a cotton ball and a veterinarian‑approved ear cleanser. Never insert anything deep into the canal.
4. Maintain Dental Hygiene
Dental disease is common in pets. Brush your dog’s teeth 2–3 times a week with a soft dog toothbrush and canine‑safe toothpaste. Professional cleaning (as offered in our Mobile Spa) should be done at least twice a year.
5. Use a Gentle, Species‑Specific Shampoo
Choose a pH‑balanced, hypo‑allergenic shampoo. Avoid human products—they can strip natural oils and irritate the skin. A therapeutic bath (our “Hydro‑Surge” option) adds extra conditioning for oily or dry coats.
By incorporating these five habits into your routine, you’ll extend the life of your dog’s coat, reduce skin problems, and keep your pet feeling comfortable and confident.
