Sedalia Pet Groomers

As pet parents, we can be very focused on making sure they get their health check-ups, are on an appropriate diet, and are getting a solid foundation in training. However, regular grooming and nail clipping is also a key element to the care and well being of our pets. 

There are three big reasons to take your pet to a professional groomer:

  1. Early detection. Every set of professional hands and eyes you have on your pet increases the likelihood of having something detected that you may miss. From fleas and eggs, skin concerns, new lumps and bumps, to issues with anal glands, ears, and teeth. A professional groomer can help in catching small concerns early. 

  2. More manageable coat. Brushing and washing regularly keeps smells, shedding, knots, and tangles all under control. Plus, who doesn’t love the smell and feel of a freshly groomed pet?

  3. Better posture. This is one we typically don’t think about, but some breeds of dogs (dachshunds) are especially prone to bad posture from nails that go untrimmed. Trimmed nails also help keep arthritis and bone deformations from becoming major concerns. Tip: If your dog's nails touch the ground while they're standing, it’s probably time to get them trimmed. 

When looking for a groomer, consider the following:

  1. What kind of training and experience do they have? Different breeds require different grooming techniques. Additionally, every dog requires a unique approach. A professional groomer will be able to accommodate a wide range of scenarios, and will be open with you about what they’re comfortable handling. We always ask about how they handle dachshunds, because they’re prone to back injuries. 

  2. What kind of products do they use? Your pet may have allergies or reactions to products, or you may wish to use all natural/organic products. Talk with your groomer about the availability of these products and whether it’s an option to use. 

  3. How do they handle emergency situations? A professional groomer will have a plan to keep your pet safe in the event of a fire, tornado, hurricane, or winter weather. Additionally, they will have basic training in first aid and CPR in case something happens while being groomed. Additionally, they’ll have connections with a local veterinarian in the event of an emergency.
