De shedding Treatment

What is shedding?

While heavy shedding is breed specific there is no such thing as a non-shedding dog unless it is completely hairless!  Some breeds shed seasonally while other shed all year around. Labrador Retrievers and German Shepherds are known to be prolific shedders, whereas Poodles and Bichon Frise are very light shedders but are prone to matting if not regularly brushed.Your dogs health is a major factor in determining how much of their hair falls out so if your dog is shedding an unusual amount for their breed it is worth getting them checked by the vet. For dogs with normal shedding levels, a specialised de-shedding treatment is recommended.

What is included in the treatment?

Our De-shedding treatment is a 5 step process.

1. Hydro massage bath and in bath hand de-shedding. This helps to separate and release loose hair, provide a smoother, softer coat during brushing, and contribute to brushing efficiency.

2. Application of specialised de shedding shampoo or mud that exfoliates and moisturises your dog’s skin to reduce shedding and provides a deep, nourishing clean, leaving their skin and coat healthy 

3. Coat treatment of Mutneys Kwik-Dry K9 spray which helps to reduce drying time, whilst volumising the coat with anti-static properties and leaving a hint of fragrance.

4. High velocity blow out to remove even more dead hair.

5. De-shedding session with specialist tools that have been developed to remove undercoat hair efficiently and painless, and coat trimming as required.

You can expect this treatment to reduce the shedding by up to 80% after the first treatment. You may experience some shedding of the loosened hair over the first 12-24 hours after you take your dog home.  For extended and continually improved results, the treatment should be repeated as recommended for the breed.
