Dogtopia of Greenwood’s dog spa services include spa baths, brush-outs, ear cleaning, toothbrushing, nail trims and grooming. They apply hypoallergenic shampoos, conditioners and products designed specifically to be safe and gentle on a dog’s skin and coat.
Because dog grooming can get very busy around the holidays, it's best to book an appointment as soon as possible, particularly when considering optimal looks sought of dogs for a particular date or event. (A fresh cut could look like a recent one in photos, which may or may not be the goal.)
Long nails can be painful for dogs, and can cause health problems such as tearing and infection. Longer nails on super-excitable, jumping dogs also can hurt holiday guests.
Pets can be susceptible to certain infections and unwanted symptoms when their hygiene isn't tip-top. Getting a thorough evaluation from a groomer on dogs' body conditions before the New Year begins can lead to preventing future problems.
Take advantage of Dogtopia's relaxing spa environment, designed to cater to the comfort of furry guests. Many dogs may get nervous around loud noises; so they offer a variety of drying methods, such as crate hair dryers or handheld options.
Once a dog has a haircut, trim or helpful bath, be sure to brush them frequently at home. A bonus is that brushings make great bonding times. Plus frequent brushing helps remove loose, shedding hair and prevents tangles.
Don’t use human hair dye on dogs. Be aware that human hair dye can irritate a dog’s skin and can make him/her sick if it's ingested. It’s best to steer clear of hair dye on dogs, even if it's a vibrant seasonal red color.
Dogtopia uses top-of-the-line tools that help pups feel relaxed and pampered.
