Gentle Paws Grooming

This is line brushing, work along in a methodical line, clearing a small area at a time of any little knots or mats. Then checking the area after with a metal comb that gets all the way down to the skin, then go back over if you locate a knot
To avoid causing pain or discomfort, hold the knotted area above where you are brushing so it doesn’t tug
On a very knotted area, I prefer to use a smaller brush and work smaller areas, I also use detangle spray which really helps

After cracking using the steps to get onto my grooming table, we then moved over to the bath!
Starting again from the beginning as it’s a new location and destination, he’s never been in my bath before. This time he was much quicker in learning what to do

Helping to teach this amazing boy how to use the steps so he can freely get on and off the table during grooming.
This helps the dog relax more as they have an exit route should they need a break. By keeping the table low it helps reduce the fear of height. Also removing the need for using neck straps or other restraints
