Dog grooming is an essential aspect of pet care that involves maintaining the hygiene and appearance of dogs. At Alfords Angels, our dog groomers play a crucial role in ensuring that dogs are healthy, happy, and looking their best. Here are some of the roles and responsibilities of our dog groomers:
1. Bathing and Brushing
Our dog groomers are responsible for bathing and brushing dogs to remove dirt, debris, tangles, and mats from their fur. They use specialized shampoos and conditioners to clean the coat thoroughly while keeping the skin moisturized.
2. Haircutting
Our dog groomers also provide haircuts for dogs based on their breed, size, and owner's preference. They use clippers or scissors to trim the fur evenly while ensuring that the dog's skin is not nicked or cut.
3. Nail Trimming
Trimming a dog's nails is essential to prevent overgrowth, which can cause discomfort or pain when walking or running. Our dog groomers use specialized tools to trim the nails safely without causing bleeding or injury.
4. Ear Cleaning
Cleaning a dog's ears is crucial to prevent infections caused by wax buildup or debris accumulation. Our dog groomers use gentle cleansers and cotton swabs to clean the ears thoroughly while avoiding damage to the ear canal.
5. Teeth Cleaning
Oral hygiene is vital for dogs as it prevents dental problems such as gum disease, tooth decay, bad breath, and tooth loss. Our dog groomers use specialized brushes and toothpaste to clean a dog's teeth gently while ensuring that they do not swallow any toothpaste.
Experience
We require at least three years experience of dog grooming & bathing.
