What to expect from your dog’s first grooming appointment

Some breeds of dogs are great because they require little grooming. They just need to be groomed regularly. Continue to read if you’re a new pet owner and want to know more about dog grooming.

Before your dog grooming appointment


We recommend that visitors to our animal hospital be healthy and up to date on their immunizations. Our pet groomers groom dozens of dogs each week. You should have immunization records for kennel cough, canine influenza, and rabies.


During your dog grooming appointment


During the appointment, the groomer will provide essential services, including:

  • Bath brush
  • Ear cleaning
  • Nail trimming
  • Hair trimming
  • Flea & tick bath
  • Sanitary trim
  • Anal gland expression
  • Teeth brushing

It’s important to find a professional who is experienced in grooming all types of dogs. An experienced groomer can make a first-time visit to the groomer less stressful for your pet.


After your dog grooming appointment

Your duties as a dog parent continue after the dog grooming appointment. Looking after your dog’s fur and health through regular brushing, bathing, and nail trimming at home can help make dog grooming sessions easier.

It is a good idea to teach your puppy good grooming behavior during your training process. This will make your dog more comfortable when it comes to grooming.
