Puppy's
First Groom
Your Puppy's First Groom
The first visit to the salon is focused on familiarising your puppy to all the sights and sounds of the salon and introducing him to the bath and blow-drying process.
​
The second visit we will do a little tidying up of feet, pads, butt and face with some nail clipping.
​
The Third visit we will do a full groom including clipping if the coat type and breed is suitable.
​
These visits may be quite lengthy as it is extremely important to bond with the groomer and be comfortable with everything the groomer does to him. With gentle guidance, he will learn that grooming is an enjoyable experience and not something to be feared. The most important thing is that your puppy's first grooming session is that he likes it!
​
After the Groom
​
Being clipped and groomed is a completely new experience for your puppy. He may feel "funny" and may want to rub himself on the carpet or furniture, or he may scratch himself. A little of this is normal, but do not let him cause any irritation to himself. Remember that his freshly clipped nails may be sharp and can easily irritate his puppy skin. If you have any questions or concerns please don't hesitate to contact us immediately.
​
Between visits to the salon you will need to brush and may need to bathe your puppy at home. Pampers can recommend and supply the equipment and coat care products that you will need. We will also demonstrate the correct brushing techniques that you need to learn to properly care for your puppy.
​
Because both you and ourselves took the time to introduce your puppy to grooming in a step by step, gentle, loving way, you made your puppy's all important first visit to the salon a wonderful experience that will help him enjoy being groomed throughout his life.
