It is important to introduce your puppy to grooming at any early age. As soon as you bring your puppy home the grooming process can help form a bond, it will also help your pup adjust to being handled and brushed.
I prefer to introduce puppies to grooming at around 11-14 weeks. My aim is to make the whole process as stress free for you and your pup as possible. For this reason I offer a Puppy Intro Grooming Service. I will meet with you and your puppy, introducing them to the sights and sounds of the grooming salon.
The Puppy Intro Groom will then include:
We can then arrange a follow-up groom in a few weeks' time where the clippers will be introduced and a full groom completed. Carrying out a puppy's first groom this way helps build trust between the puppy and the groomer, leading to future grooming sessions being relaxed and stress free, just as they should be.
