Make trips to the groomer relaxing and stress-free for your pet
To make grooming day more relaxing for everyone, follow these simple suggestions:
Transport safely:
Cats should always be transported in a pet carrier. Dogs should be restrained inside the vehicle, either in a crate or with a harness. Always use a collar and leash when entering or leaving the groomer's shop.
Make car trips fun:
Avoid having your dog solely associate car rides with trips
to the vet or groomer. Every once in a while, take him or her for a ride
just for fun.
Control your emotions:
Keep your departure from and your return to the groomer's
shop low-key. Rein in those emotional farewells and ecstatic reunions;
your subdued behavior will be less confusing and far less disturbing for
your pet.
Plan ahead:
On the day your pet must go to the groomer, plan your time
accordingly. Observe the drop-off and pick-up times your groomer specifies.
Arriving earlier than expected to retrieve an animal that isn't finished
can cause stress to the pet if he or she hears or sees you. And when you
arrive many hours after your stated pick-up time, you cause stress for
both your pet and your groomer!
Keep them together:
Whenever possible, have housemates groomed together on the
same day so that they can find comfort in the sight, sound and smell of
each other at the groomer's shop.
Groom routinely:
Have your pet groomed regularly and make sure to perform
at-home grooming maintainance between regular appointments. This will
reduce your pet's overall grooming time and make the entire process less
distressing.
A trip to the groomer should be an enjoyable, routine occurence - not
a
sporadic, stress-filled event. By following these simple guidelines, you
can reduce your pet's anxiety on grooming day.
