So I thought I would take this opportunity to write about sensitive dog skin and clipper rash. I will write about clipper burns on a separate post as this is not something that occurs when using a machines similar to my  Clipper Vac .

If after a groom your pup starts to show discomfort by licking an area, scooting and/or show a visible rash, it is important to sooth the area with vaseline or neosporin. This will help keep your dog from further scratching, scooting and biting the area and prevent further irritation. Also let me or your groomer know about this so the event is noted in grooming notes. This allows the groomer to make adjustments specifically for your pet. 

I was trying to do some paper work while Emily & Poke (not pictured) waited for their parents, but Emily had other ideas. She wanted more head rubs ! 

Look how happy Sophie (right) is about having to share the couch and me.
