Dog grooming can be performed by you, the owner or a professional. If you are doing the grooming yourself please adhere to several safety tips. Your dog is special to you and you want to keep him safe and calm during grooming. Any pain or injury can cause emotional stress to your dog and make him and you afraid to ever groom dog again. The following tips will ensure a safe and pleasurable grooming experience.

Big mistake to shave your dog. Pet grooming experts will do this at the request of the owner, but it is not a good idea if your dog is outside. The coat protects your dog from the cold and the sun. Both of which can cause serious skin damage to your dog and could lead to expensive veterinarian bills. The lack of hair on the body can cause rashes. The hair in some breeds secretes essential oils that protect and lubricate the skin.

If you use clippers, brush the hair backwards against the grain and then move your clippers with the grain. The novice dog groomer may use home hair clippers, but experiment first in an unnoticeable area or your dog may end up looking, let's say less than desirable. When shaving the underbelly, careful not to get the nipples.
