Secrets and tips for starting your pet grooming business
We will start with covering specific tricks for different dog breeds and then move to more general information for all dogs. At the end we will share a resource that can be used to find information about grooming cats as well. There are different tips for grooming different breeds of dogs. The trick is to know the breed, the type of coat it has, and the methods used to groom and style each one.
The Affenpinscher has a very harsh coat and sheds very little hair. Very little grooming is needed. You can comb or brush the fur weekly, but it should never be clipped. Plucking is sometimes necessary. Pay special attention to the eyes as hair can grow at the sides.
The Norfolk Terrier sheds lightly with a shaggy, waterproof coat that is medium in length. Daily brushing is needed, though you should pay extra attention when this dog is shedding. Baths and dry shampoos should be given only when needed.
Afghan Hounds have a long, thick coat that does require grooming on a daily basis. This breed is prone to mats and tangles, which can be prevented with daily brushing. An occasional bath, maybe twice a week, will help as well. This breed is an average shedder.
Dalmatians are clean dogs, though their short coat sheds constantly throughout the year and heavily twice a year. This dog should be brushed regularly, at least once or twice a week, to remove dead hairs and control shedding. Baths should be given only when necessary.
The Norwegian Elkhound has a hard, coarse coat which resists both water and dirt. This breed should be brushed regularly. Because this dog is a sheds seasonally, it's best at this time to use a rubber brush or wooden comb with a double row of metal teeth to remove dead hair. Baths should be given only when needed.
For Airedale Terriers, because of their hard, short-haired coat, this breed needs a lot of grooming. They have a double coat, which requires plucking twice a year.Iif their coat is kept stripped, these dogs will do very little shedding. Wash the beard regularly to keep it free of food residue.
The English Setter is an average shedder with a soft, flat coat that is medium in length. This dog should be brushed regularly to prevent tangles, and you should give extra attention during the shedding seasons. The nails should also be clipped regularly, and the hair on the bottom of the feet should also be trimmed. Baths or dry shampoos should be given only when needed.
The Old English Sheepdog is a seasonally heavy shedder with a long, coarse coat. Grooming should be done frequently to prevent mats, tangles and skin problems. Brush this breed at least three times per week, and keep the hair around the eyes and rear-end trimmed.
The American Bulldog is an average shedder with a short, harsh coat. This breed is very easy to groom. Use a firm bristle brush.Bathe only when necessary.
The Papillon is an average shedder with a long, silky coat. They should be brushed several times a week. Pay attention to the hair behind the ears and on the belly to keep mats from forming. The nails should be clipped and the teeth cleaned regularly. Baths or dry shampoos can be given when necessary.
The Pekingese is an average shedder with a long, double coat. The coat must be brushed daily to keep mats from forming, . The face and eyes should be regularly cleaned. Dry shampoos can be given on a regular basis.
Though the Finnish Spitz is a seasonally heavy shedder, they do have a very clean coat with no doggie smell. Dead hairs do need to be removed from the coat, so this breed should be brushed regularly. Washing is not necessary.
The Golden Retriever is an average shedder with a soft, thick, water-repellent outercoat and a fairly dense undercoat. To decrease shedding, brush regularly with a firm bristle brush, once daily if possible. You should only bathe this breed when needed, but it can be given a dry shampoo fairly regularly. Take care when removing mats.
The Saint Bernard can have either a shorthaired coat or a rough-haired coat. The shorthaired coat is dense and smooth, while the rough-haired coat is longer with feathering on the thighs and legs. These breeds shed twice a year and require daily brushing with a firm bristle brush. Baths should be given only when necessary and a mild soap must be used to avoid stripping the coat of its oils.
The coat of the Saluki can be either smooth or feathered. Both have short, silky hair. The feathered coat, however, has feathering on the ears, tail and legs. Brush both coats occasionally. Also make sure to clean the ears
There are several general problems you may be faced with. Let's start with dog odor, something you're probably going to be asked to deal with at some point. In some cases, these odors are not grooming related. They are...
Bad Breath - Plaque and infected teeth or gums can produce a foul odor. Also, some diseases like kidney failure can also cause bad breath.
Infected Ears - This condition also causes a foul odor.
Anal Glands/Sacs - When a dog has a bowel movement, and these sacs become infected, this can also cause a bad odor.
If you suspect that any of these may be the cause, refer your client to a vet and there is little you will be able to do about the condition other than a normal grooming. Just be advised that this may not be enough to get rid of the odor.
We should also cover what to do to undo the summer damage that will be done to your client's dog. This is a common problem because of the summer heat and humidity.
Let's start with brushing. The longer the hair of the breed, the more frequently brushing needs to be done. Some breeds can be brushed once a week. Others need to be brushed daily.
A matted coat will trap heat and moisture and make your dog quite uncomfortable. Brushing greatly helps prevent against matting.
You should use a conditioning and untangling spray before brushing to make brushing easier. Use a steal pinned comb to make sure all the knots have been removed.
As for shampooing, some breeds need to be shampooed at least once a week if not more, especially in the summer. After shampooing, make sure you follow with a conditioning rinse. If you're going to use a hair dryer after washing, set it to the lowest and coolest setting to avoid burning the dog's skin.
