Senior Dog Grooming

Senior Grooming

Grooming can be stressful for some dogs, and even more so for older dogs, creating anxiety, pain, and potentially unsafe processes. Grooming requires dogs to stand up for long periods of time, endure baths, high powered air dryers, and being put into uncomfortable positions to trim certain areas of the body. Salons are typically loud, fast-paced, high volume environments.

At The Pink Pug, much of that stress can be reduced or eliminated completely and increased care and patience can be provided to pets with mobility or pain issues with hydraulic equipment that can reach the floor for older dogs with mobility issues. At The Pink Pug, we have one groomer whom has minimal appointments at the same time. Creating a more relaxed environment for every pet in the salon. My grooming approach always puts the pet’s comfort and safety first, taking more time wherever needed, giving breaks, and providing a haircut that fits the dog’s current lifestyle and challenges.
