De-Shedding Treatment

Based on the latest reports, an estimated 89 million dogs share their homes with humans in the United States. If you’re among the pet parent masses, you probably know just how much of a problem shedding can be. No matter how many times you sweep and dust each week, the free-flying fur just keeps piling up. While brushing mitigates the issue to an extent, professionals offer a more effective solution.

When The Fur Flies

Shedding is a necessary process for dogs. Though most of them shed a bit all year long, they tend to do so more during the spring and fall. In springtime, they get rid of their thick winter coats to help them stay cool when warm weather rolls around. In the fall, they shed to make way for their warm winter coats to protect them against the coming cold.
​
While all dogs shed, this can be particularly problematic for dogs with double coats. They generally blow their coats prior to summertime, which can leave behind massive amounts of fur. It also creates a patchy, uneven appearance that makes the dogs look a bit pitiful for a time. From standard shedding to coat blow, a range of quality grooming services is available to make things easier for you and less stressful for your dog.

Keeping Control of the Situation with a De-Shedding Treatment

No matter which breed of dog you have, a de-shedding treatment can help keep matters under control. This dog grooming service also helps make your dog more comfortable. It can also aid in preventing matting and pelting and protect the skin from irritation.

What Happens During a De-Shedding Treatment?

De-shedding treatments consist of two steps. First, mobile dog groomers bath the dog with a special shampoo and conditioner. They massage the shampoo into the dog’s coat and allow it to remain in place for a few moments to fully saturate the fur. Then, they rinse out the shampoo and repeat the process with the conditioner.

These products loosen the fur that would normally fall out little by little during the shedding process. In addition to loosening fur that’s getting ready to be shed, these specialized shampoos and conditioners help strengthen the hairs and follicles left behind. This reduces shedding following the treatment. After the conditioner is rinsed out, the dog is either blow-dried or allowed to dry naturally.

Once the dog is dry, the grooming expert will thoroughly comb through his or her coat. Groomers use combs with specially designed teeth that safely and gently remove all the hair loosened by the shampoo and conditioner. This comb doesn’t cut or shave the dog’s fur; it simply gets rid of the hair that’s ready to fall out.

Supplementing the Grooming Process with De-Shedding Treatments

De-shedding treatments are completely safe dogs. They help condition the skin as well as the fur. At the same time, they don’t damage dogs’ fur or involve shaving their coats. While shaving can help keep long-haired breeds cooler during the summer, it doesn’t actually prevent shedding. The hair still falls out just as it would otherwise.

De-shedding treatments are effective options for keeping excessive shedding under control. They also aid in preventing other coat-related issues, like matting, pelting, and parasites. On top of all that, the process promotes body temperature regulation and healthy fur regrowth.
