Dog Grooming FAQ

Practical answers for Pooraka pet owners

What questions should I ask before choosing a groomer?

When researching groomers in Pooraka, ask about their experience with your specific breed, their handling methods for difficult or anxious dogs, what products they use, their COVID safety protocols, and whether you can view their facility. It's also worth asking about their policy for breaks during grooming sessions and how they handle unexpected issues like finding skin problems or mats.

How often should I have my dog groomed?

Most professional groomers recommend scheduling appointments every 4-8 weeks, depending on your dog's breed and coat type. Long-haired breeds like Shih Tzus or Poodles typically need grooming every 4-6 weeks, while shorter-coated breeds might go 8-12 weeks between sessions. Regular brushing at home between professional grooms is essential for all coat types.

Do I need to prepare my dog before their grooming appointment?

To get the most from your grooming appointment, brush your dog thoroughly a day or two before if possible (especially if they're matted). Take them for a walk to relieve themselves before arriving. If it's their first visit, bring vaccination records and inform the groomer about any health issues, sensitivities, or behavioral concerns your dog might have.

My dog gets anxious during grooming. What can I do?

Many Pooraka groomers specialize in handling nervous pets. Start with short, positive visits where nothing stressful happens. Consider booking during quieter times and bringing familiar items from home. Some groomers offer special services for anxious dogs, including extra breaks, calming techniques, or even separate rooms away from other animals.
