Grooming is an essential part of pet ownership - and here is why
Grooming is part of responsible pet ownership. With so many breeds and types of breed specific coats, many pets look to their owners for help to maintain their health and appearance. Breeding of specific traits has meant that special care is required by owners. Regular grooming helps prevent skin issues, matting, and infections. It allows for the early detection of health problems like lumps, bumps or parasites.
Grooming helps improve your pet’s hygiene. By bathing and cleaning we helps eliminate dirt, allergens and odours which keeps your pet comfortable and healthy.
Grooming removes excess hair and debris, making pets feel more comfortable. Particularly for long hair dogs around their eyes, mouth, ears, paws and groin area. It is particularly important to keep eyes clear where debris form at the tear ducts to avoid any eye infections that could result from it.
At Tangled Pet Grooming we highly encourage grooming at home and to seek out professional help too. Grooming can strengthen the bond between you and your pet, as it involves physical touch and attention. By seeking professional groomers help this also helps your pet accept being touched by others outside of their immediate household. It’s all part of the importance of good socialisation for your pet.
Lastly regular grooming keeps pets looking their best and if it is important to you can help maintain breed standards.
Home Grooming:
Making time to groom from home will save you money and gives owners more options when seeking professional grooming services to get the look they want. Pets naturally put a lot of trust in their owners and are usually more comfortable in their own environment. The process still requires desensitisation training to get pets accepting for grooming at home.
You know your pet best and can cater to their specific needs and comfort levels. Grooming at home can help you learn more about your pet’s needs and improve your skills over time.
By maintaining your pet’s coat by bathing and brushing gives you more options when seeking out professional groomers to get the look you want.

Professional Grooming:
Professional groomers have training and experience, allowing them to handle various breeds and grooming styles effectively. We work with pets all day are sensitive to signal that they give. Therefore, we can adapt our style of grooming to work with your pet effectively and know when your pet is too stressed to continue.
At Tangled Pet Grooming we have access to high-quality tools and grooming products that may not be available at home. We have learned how to use these tools effectively and safely. Grooming tools can be sharp and harsh. When you are working against delicate skin or compromised pets it’s best to let a skilled hand work with these pets in a safe manner.
It can be a more efficient option for busy pet owners, as groomers can often complete the process more quickly. For sensitive pets this can mean all the difference to keep their stress levels to a minimum.
