Maggie

Nicky carefully handles a puppy’s first groom. It’s important not to ask too much of a pup. A bath and tidy is a great way of introducing the grooming regime to a pup. Here Nicky introduces a Groomers Helper. This is a big experience for any pup. Give your dog lots of breaks and praise.

Maggie - Puppy’s First Groom

Maggie is typical of any pup being groomed for the first time. She has no understanding of what she is supposed to do or how to behave. As groomers, we need to provide reassurance, care, and praise to ensure the pup is confident to move to the next stage of grooming. Give yourself and the pup plenty of time. Be the best leader you can be!
