Fun Facts
Overgrown nails are one of the leading causes of obesity. Nails should be trimmed every 4-6 weeks or depending on the lifestyle of your dog.

Poor dental health or periodontal disease is one of the top 3 leading causes of premature death in dogs. Teeth should be brushed every day. If not, let your dog chew on treats, toys and/or bones made especially for dental health.

Using a high velocity dryer helps get rid of dead skin and hair. It helps promote healthy skin and coat.





CANCELLATION POLICY:
If you do not call and/or show up to your appointment, your account will be charged a $15 on call/show fee.





MATTED COAT POLICY:
Choosing the right breed of dog for your lifestyle is very important. If you chose a coated breed you will have to spend a certaain amount of time each day brushing and combing the coat. Should your pet have mats, I will do my best to brush/comb it out. If it makes your pet uncomfortable in any way or the mat is too thick, I will clipper it out. If you request that I try to save your pet's coat and it takes more than 10 minutes to de-mat, you will be charged a $50 per hour de-matting charge (minimum charge $50)




Q&A
Q. Do I need to make an appointment?
A. Yes, please call ahead. There are times when it is just impossible to get your pet in on short notice. Holidays are extremely busy times.  You WILL need to call ahead.

Q. Why don't you quote an exact amount on the phone?
A. Without seeing your pet we are not aware of what blades will get through certain types of coat, what condition the pet is in and what type of temperament the pet has. All these factors play a part in the pricing, along with what type of style can be done on the pet versus what the owners wants. We do not do extensive de-matting. The safest and most painless way is to clip the pet down short and start all over again, then the owner can maintain the pet with proper brushing at home in between grooms. Without seeing the pet, the condtion of the coat, and the temperament, we can only estimate the cost.

Q. Do you groom extra large dogs like a St. Bernard or a Great Pyrenees?
A. Of course, no dog is too large!

Q. How long does it take to groom a dog?
A. Most grooming takes approximately 2-3 hours, so please plan to leave your pet about that long.

I like to spend quality time with each pet so they enjoy their experience. It takes longer than owners think to bathe and dry a dog properly, attend to its ears, nails and styling. Please remember that animals are not always on their best behavior, so grooming times may vary.

We do our best to stagger "IN" times so that the amount of time your pet is here is reduced. We will call you as soon as your pet is ready, or almost ready, so he/she won't have to be here any longer than necessary. All time quotes are estimates. We like to take our time to do a beautiful job, and your pet will remain more relaxed if he/she does not sense we are in a rush, so please allow us all the time we need to do the right job.

Thank you
Leena

Service Dog to the Rescue

Leone and her dog "Lexi" have been coming to the Spring Green Pet Resort for the past couple of years. Awhile back Leone was having trouble standing, took a nasty fall and broke her back. At that time, Leone realized she needed help and found Lexi as a pup. Lexi was trained by Joe Camp, a certified trainer known for training the movie star dog "Chance" who was one of the 3 leading stars in the Homeward Bound movies.

Lexi is trained to help Leone up and down stairs, at the grocery store, getting in or out of bed and chairs and other tasks that are a little difficult for Leone to do on her own. Leone is very happy and grateful to have Lexi by her side! Lexi comes in every couple of months to get a good bath and de-shed treatment along with her discount.

A Day at the Spa for Piper Kropp




On Thursday, August 18, 2011, Piper Kropp, our May Spa winner, received her free spa day.  Here are some details about her day.  Piper wanted to darken her hair to impress her friends so I used a darkening shampoo to bring out her dark color.  She also wanted to make a statement so I left a bit of hair on the top of her head and took the rest of her very short.  To really give her flair, I added a bit of red color to her little patch of hair.  Her drink of choice was a "Doggie Soda."  Her aromatherapy choice was rose and jasmine.  "The Top 25 Punk Rock Bands" was playing in the background while she got her bath and groom.

A Day at the Spa for Katie Balink

April Spa Winner - Katie Balink

On Tuesday June 7, 2011 Katie Balink, our May Spa Winner, received her free spa day.  Here are some details about her day.  In the morning she had play time with her friends.  Afterwards, she came inside for a snack and nap time.  When the tub was ready, she had her bubble bath.  Her drink of choice was "Puppy Fizz."  She chose lavender and chamomile for her aromatherapy.  "The Best of Frank Sinatra" was playing in the background while she had her bath and groom.

Ten Reasons for Grooming Your Dog on a Regular Schedule

You love your dog but should you believe that groomer that recommends having your pet bathed and groomed every 4 to 6 weeks?  After all, isn't it just a matter of them getting to your pocketbook?  Actually, there's far more to it than money.  In fact, did you know a lack of grooming can negatively affect the state of your dog's health?  Here's how:

1)  Dogs cool off by panting and by air circulating around and through their pads.  Long hair impairs that ability.

2) Crust in the corner of the eyes causes sores that can lead to your pet's discomfort.  These sores can only be seen after removing the thick crust upon grooming.

3)  Long and overgrown nails force your dog to walk on the sides of their pads.  In the long run, this contributes to arthritis in the legs and hips.

4)  Matted hair pulls and causes pain for your pet and creates a breeding environment for fleas, ticks and their nests.

5) Anal glands are the most neglected part of your dog's body.  As they fill up, some can burst causing very expensive surgery and unnecessary pain.  A thorough groom includes expressing these glands.

6)  Your dog's ears have hair deep within the inner canals that need to be removed every 4 to 6 weeks: otherwise you risk inflammations and potential ear infections.

7)  Hair in anal areas as well as the ears serves as hosting areas for nests resulting in fleas dwelling in the inner canals of the ears and into the anal canal.

8)  Clearing your dog's private areas of hair is just plain good hygiene.  This guarantees your dog's excretions and stool will not stick and be carried indoors.

9)  Some breeds have undercoats that build from shedding within.  The outer and inner coat become thickly packed and form thick mats that are extremely difficult to remove and may result in a much shorter cut than desired.

10)  Bathing your dog without first brushing creates small, tight knots referred to as pin knots.  These types of knots make your pet's grooming experience a painful and unpleasant one.  Removing these knots may also result in a much shorter cut than you may have desired.

 

Whether staying at the Pet Resort or just coming in for pampering, your pet will enjoy the full-service grooming that we offer.  Our commitment is to help ensure your pet's health by providing services that promote good hygiene from nails to coat and teeth.

Every pet groomed has its nails cut, ears cleaned and is bathed and blown dry.  For a grooming quote, or to schedule an appointment, please contact the Spring Green Pet Resort at (608) 588-3405.
