Grooming your pet is one of the ways to maintain optimal health and happiness.
We are happy to consult with you about an ideal grooming schedule based on the species, breed, and on your pet’s lifestyle habits. Additionally, we know that there are some conditions that are better treated in our office than in your home. While a routine bath will clean your pet’s hair of debris, dirt, and excess oil, irritated skin needs extra TLC.
Medicated baths are performed when a skin problem needs to be addressed. Some medications are formulated for flea and tick prevention, as well. Achieving the desired result from a medicated bath often requires precision techniques in addition to the right soap and medication. For instance, some medicated grooming products need to be massaged into the skin and left there for several minutes to adequately soothe irritation or combat infection. Performing this type of bath at home can be extremely challenging, especially if your pet is not in a cooperative mood!
