Each owner of a pet wants her pet to be the most beautiful! Grooming is a help to a pet in many cases. Fashionable, attractive - so that those around look around after a handsome man with a luxuriously arranged head of hair or a sweet little girl with a flirty bow on the vertex.
Exterior is super!
Do you have a thoroughbred dog and do you want him to participate in exhibitions? Then you can not do without the help of the groom.
In the scientific sense, grooming - helping a pet - is the behavior of the animal, aimed at maintaining its own hygiene: washing, licking wool, bathing. And in everyday life it's a haircut of a dog or a cat.
To maintain the pet's exterior at the proper level, turn to grooming - helping the pet as early as possible: he will tell you what procedures should be carried out so as not to spoil the exhibition career of the pet.
Creativity - yes
The beauty industry for animals is an uneasy area, it has a lot of nuances. For example: wire-haired dogs can not be cut with a machine: the new fur that has appeared will be softer than the former, and the breed standards do not allow it; Trimming (this term most often refers to plucking and combing out wool with special knives) is recommended for representatives of not every breed, but only for schnauzers, for almost all terriers and coarse-wool dachshunds; Yorkshire terriers are famous for their luxurious silky hair. But that the head of the dog should meet the exhibition requirements, it must be regularly smeared with cosmetic oil and wound on the hairpins.
But the services of the groom are not cheap, so if you do not plan to "exhibit" your pet, master the basics of guiding beauty yourself. Haircut at the pet will not be as impeccable as after the salon, but there is a place for creativity. And more: care for the appearance is needed not only for aesthetic, but also for hygienic purposes. For example, to cut hair in dogs with bulging eyes on the muzzle, and for long-haired - between the fingers and in the genital area is necessary.
In the cabin or at home!
Decided yet to turn to professional grooming - helping the pet? You can take a pet to the salon - now even in small towns there are hairdressers for animals. They are equipped with good equipment: car washes and dryers for animals, hydraulic tables for haircuts, professional tools. Experienced masters redeem your pet, trim claws and fur, put it in a beautiful "hairdo."
Another option is to call the master home: this solution will be ideal for dogs that are nervous in unfamiliar surroundings, as well as for unvaccinated puppies.
Solid Terms
To, when you come to the salon, not to get confused in terms, remember the simplest ones. Show-trim - hairstyle for exhibitions. It is carried out only by a professional, includes several stages. Top note - wool, collected in a ponytail and decorated with a bow. Clippervek - very short ("under zero") haircut machine: manual or electric.
The cat gave birth to kittens three months ago, the kids were already given out to friends, but the pussy for some reason began to refuse to eat and lose weight. Maybe she has not recovered yet after delivery?
Or misses the kids?
Feed failure and weight loss are not related to childbirth and kitten feeding. The reason may lie in another. It is possible that pregnancy provoked worsening of any chronic disease, which was previously asymptomatic. To establish the cause, it is necessary to make your pet an ultrasound of the abdominal cavity and a biochemical blood test.
The parrot fell into a pan of hot water. He quickly took off, but, nevertheless, managed to scald. On the abdomen and tail feathers fell out, he sits, puffing and pinches his paws.
How can I help him?
In such cases, before the visit to the doctor it is necessary to provide the bird with first aid - rinse the burned places with a solution of furacilin and lubricate any wound healing ointment - this may be levomecol or panthenol. If the bird does not eat and does not drink, then it is necessary to drink it by force from the syringe with warm boiled water or a solution of 5% glucose (if it is near at hand). In any case, do not delay the visit to the doctor. You may need antibiotics.
