Description
This week on the Good Dog Pod, Allison Alexander joins Laura Reeves to talk all-things grooming. Allison is an esteemed groomer in the dog community ready to provide the audience with her top tips on how to keep your dog healthy, clean and matte-free at home.
The three key skills covered in this episode are how to bathe, brush and trim your dog's toenails correctly. Even though these may seem basic, there is no shame in being new to the grooming world and learning how to do it. Everybody learns.
Allison shares her Secret Hacks to grooming:
Vinegar Rinse. Having trouble removing the shampoo from your dog? You can put a 10% vinegar rinse, leave it for a minute and it will help rinse out shampoo out of there.
Listerine in water (10% dilution): wipes stink off. Gets shiny and removes dandruff.
Scratch test - before you use any brush on your dog, brush it against your arm. If it scratches you, you should not be using it on your dog.
