Operation steps:

1. Due to personal habits, some beauticians like to bathe the dog and trim the coat before trimming the nails. However, trimming the nails generally involves the risk of bleeding., will stain the newly washed coat, so it is recommended to trim the dog’s nails first. When cutting nails, it is best to choose a brighter place, so that it is easier to observe the blood line. If you accidentally cut and bleed, use a good hemostatic powder to press the wound for about 10 seconds to stop it.

2. After cutting the nails, we must first comb the dog's coat. Because some owners do not have good care habits, the dog's coat usually becomes tangled. If it is not combed out before bathing, it will become more difficult after being soaked in water, and it will also prevent us from drying the coat. If the dog's coat is very tangled, the coat can only be removed first. To knot the coat, first cut a hole with scissors, then use a rake to untangle the knots, and finally use a straight comb to comb the coat through.

3. After combing the coat, you can start taking a bath. The water temperature is generally controlled at around 47 degrees, and the temperature should not be too high. First, squeeze the dog's anal glands so that even if there is foreign matter, it can be quickly rinsed. The order of bathing is usually from back to front and bottom to top. After washing it all over, wash it 1-2 times with shower gel.

4. After washing, use an absorbent towel to dry the coat roughly, and then prepare to blow-dry. First, use a water sweeper to sweep from the roots of the dog's coat, so that the excess water on the body can be roughly swept away. Then use a hair dryer to dry the coat completely.

5. Since small dogs are prone to excessively long ear hair, it is best to check whether the dog’s ear hair is too long after blowing. If it is relatively long, you can pour a little ear hair plucking powder and rub the roots of the ears. Start plucking. After pulling it out, use a hemostat to clamp a small ball of cotton, dip it in some ear cleaning solution, and clean the dog's ears until there are no foreign objects of other colors.

​Warm reminder:

1. When wetting the dog's coat, the head is the last part to be wetted. When rinsing the shower gel, start from the head first. This is just to prevent the shower gel from staying on the head for too long and flowing into the eyes. causing discomfort. Be sure to cover your dog's eyes when rinsing.

2. The shower gel must be used specifically for dogs. Do not use human shower gel. This will destroy the acid-base balance of the dog's skin.

3. Some dogs may be afraid of the sound of hair dryers, so owners should let their dogs listen to such sounds more often to let them get used to it. You must also blow dry the coat completely, even if it is 90% dry, because if the coat is not dried, the humid environment can easily cause fungi to breed, leading to skin diseases in dogs.

4. Many owners are afraid of piercing their dog’s eardrums when picking out their ears, but there is no need to worry because dogs’ ear canals are L-shaped, so their eardrums will not be pierced.
