YOU can spend a small fortune pampering your dog at a pet-grooming salon.
Some owners fork out thousands for this but you can keep your pooch looking great for a whole lot less money.
GettyFind out how to save money by grooming your dog at home[/caption]Here’s how . . .
ALWAYS BRUSHING: If your pet has longer hair, you should regularly brush its coat, according to Megan Roberts, manager and head groomer at London dog salon Mon Joli Chien, which offers pups luxury facials and paw-cures among its services.
She says: “This is the most effective way to manage shedding, prevent painful matting and distribute those essential natural oils that keep their coat gleaming.”
Make sure you choose the right brush for your dog’s coat type. You can choose from a slicker brush, pin brush or rake.
Just a few minutes of brushing can make a world of difference.
CLEAN UP: When your four-legged friend ends up mucky, you can get them squeaky-clean without pricey products.
Megan says: “Skip the expensive wipes and sprays and opt for a warm, damp washcloth for quick clean-ups.
“Coconut oil isn’t just for cooking, it’s a fantastic paw balm and a safe, effective moisturiser for their coat and skin.
“Repurpose an old comb for gentle de- tangling, and use a soft toothbrush to keep those teeth in tip-top shape.”
NAILED IT: You should make sure your dog’s claws are kept trim or they can cause discomfort and other issues.
Invest in a good pair of nail-clippers and you can do it yourself at home, advises Megan.
You can ask a vet or dog groomer for a demonstration or even look on YouTube for an online tutorial. Trimming hair at home is very tricky.
If you choose to try it yourself, Megan says: “Take your time, use blunt-nosed scissors or clippers with appropriate guards, and prioritise safety above all else.”
