Why Is A Dog Wash Necessary

2016/5/4 10:25:52

Do you hate feeling sweaty and unwashed after exercising vigorously or doing heavy gardening? It certainly isn't the most pleasant feeling in the world. So what does one do? Well of course, they head for the shower to wash it away so we can feel fresh again. Well what about your dog, especially if he is an outdoors pet? He digs in the dirt to bury his bones, gets sweaty chasing the birds or the cat, and rolls in the grass. Even smaller indoor pooches need regular baths to keep them smelling fresh. So as well as us needing a regular bathing routine, our pets do too.

Pets are like children in the sense that they are dependent on us for their welfare. Pet ownership is a privilege that carries responsibility. We provide food and water, exercise them, vaccinate and apply flea control to keep them from infestation. It is our duty to make sure they receive regular baths so they too can feel clean and fresh. If dirt is not washed out of their coat they can end up with skin problems, their coat will be dull and grubby looking and they will also develop an unpleasant odor. If you sometimes have to book your dog into boarding kennels check that they will do full grooming.

Grooming is something that very few dogs don't enjoy. The majority mostly love it. Grooming helps to prevent eye infections from seeds caught in the hair round our pet's face. Some seeds can also burrow into the skin, so regular bathing and brushing is vital. Nothing shows a dog is loved and well cared for more than a clean healthy coat free of vermin. Of course it is also important not to overdo it, as over bathing can lead to dry itchy skin problems. If you aren't sure of how regular a dog wash should be ask your vet. They are the best source of advice for your pet.

Mobile dog wash firms are a great choice for the larger dogs who are hard to handle. They use special shampoos and a mobile tub to give dogs a hydro-bath. Again the dogs love it. They will also bathe small dogs and are gentle in handling them. Whether your dog is in a boarding kennel or at home, there is no reason for neglecting their regular grooming. Your dog will love you for it.

Boarding kennels Brisbane can be a home away from home for pets like Rydges Pet
Resort http://www.rydgespetresort.com.au/ when
we cannot take them with us on holidays. They will enjoy grooming Brisbane while
there and have the company of other dogs. A dog wash will keep them fresh until
you get back to take over.
