Grooming Tips for Dog Ear - Boops and Bleps

Ear cleaning


Ear cleaning is one of the most important parts of dog grooming. Regular ear examination is necessary for dogs as it helps in the identification of any kind of injury or infection in the early stages. The regular examination helps one access the cleanliness of a dog’s ear canal and the need for cleaning the ear. Some breeds are more prone to ear infection and thus require special attention for ear checking.  While examination any kind of discharge or odour might suggest the presence of infection in the ear.  If there is any kind of inflammation, redness, swelling or pain then consult a local veterinarian before initiating the cleaning process. 

As you all know the ear canal ends with an eardrum and have a complex structure which makes it difficult to expel any stuck object without any assistance. Any foreign object in the dog’s ear can be an irritant and a source of future infection. 
For ear cleaning one can use a good quality ear cleaner.  If the ear is having any inflammation or injury then do not use a cleanser containing Hydrogen peroxide and alcohol as it may cause irritation in the ear canal.  If a veterinarian finds any kind of ear infection then he can recommend a cleanser having anti-fungal or anti-bacterial properties.

Apart from a good quality cleanser, you may need cotton swabs, a gauge and some treats for cleaning the ear. Do not use Cotton bud or cotton tip for cleaning as it may cause damage to the earbud.  It may further push the debris into the ear canal. 

Step-by-Step Guide for Ear Cleaning

1. Make your dog sit in front of you with your rear leg placed between your legs. For large breeds make your dog stand sidewise near the wall and rear end in the corner of the room and stand on one of the sides. 
2. Hold the ear flap vertically so that the ear canal can be observed. Use another hand to hold the ear cleaning solution.
3. Apply some ear cleaning solution to the dog's ear. Do not put the tip of the bottle in the ear. After applying the cleaning solution clean the tip using cotton swabs to prevent the spread of harmful bacteria or fungus. 
4. Keeping the ear flap vertically, gently massage the base of the ear for 30-40 seconds. This will help spread of cleaning solution in the ear and break the debris. 
5. Use a cotton ball and gauze to wipe away debris from the inner part of the ear flap. Allow the dog to shake his head which will allow the remaining ear solution and debris to move out of the canal to the outer opening of the ear. Use a cotton ball to remove the debris from the outer canal. 
6. Provide a treat to the dog and wait for minutes before repeating the same process with another ear. 
7. If any pain, swelling or injury is observed then stop the process and consult your veterinarian immediately.

                                                                                                                                                        


                                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                        
 



 

Grooming tips for Dog Eyes - Boops and Bleps




EYE CARE: -

The eye is one of the sense organs of any living being and just like humans Pets also possess a risk of infection or irritation in the eyes because of multiple factors. So, in order to keep your dog cent per cent, fit and healthy, eye examination becomes one of the most essential routine exercises for owners and has to be performed from time to time in order to keep their eyes healthy and free from infection. Ignorance of this might lead to serious eye illness which can be threatening to them.

Eye Health: The Warning Signs:-

It's very important to regularly examine the eyes and look for the warning signs for any future implications. If the signs are identified earlier, it can be treated better. Dogs can have a varied range of eye problems just like in humans like Dry eyes, cataracts, conjunctivitis, cherry eye, glaucoma etc. 

There are many warning signs that can indicate that something is wrong with the dog’s eyes. It is not necessarily the final diagnosis but these signs can tell a lot about eye health. If the owner finds any of these warning signs then they should contact a veterinarian for a confirmatory diagnosis.  The most common warning signs are as follows:

Tearing

Redness

Frequent Blinking or squinting

Any kind of discharge from the eye (usually Yellow or Green) 

Cloudiness (It may be quite common in old dogs)

Sensitivity to light

Swelling near the eyes

Decreased vision- can be indicated by poor balance or confusion

Rubbing or pawing of the face around the eyes

Tips for Eye Care:-

Trim any kind of hair growth near or over the eye. Cut the hair parallel to the eyelid and always use blunt-nosed scissors. This is really important because of skin folds near the eyes in certain breeds like Lhasa apso, Pekingese etc.  Note: Do not point the scissors towards the dog as it may be the cause of any injury. 

Clean the area around the eyes on a daily basis with the help of cotton wipes or using eye wipes. Cleaning the eyes on a regular basis keeps it away from mucus. While cleaning with the eye keep the wipe or tip of eyewash away from the cornea to prevent any kind of injury. 

While giving a bath to the dog always remember to rinse the shampoo as soon as it is applied as it may cause irritation and redness to the eyes. The tearless shampoo also can act as an irritant for dog eyes. 

Some breeds tend to develop tear stains with time. Timely cleaning of tear stains is very important. It should be done once a week with cotton using eyewash or using eye wipes. 

If the dog is going on a car ride make sure his head is inside the car while cruising as it might be the cause of injury due to some foreign particle. Observe the eye after every outdoor tour for any dirt or foreign particle and also for any of the above-mentioned warning signs. 

If your dog is old then there are chances that the eye becomes cloudy due to age. It's normal but a routine veterinary examination can rule out any serious condition. 

Even though proper care is taken, a routine veterinary examination is important to diagnose any kind of serious illness. It can be done during regular grooming visits.

Dog Grooming Guide - Boops & Bleps

 



Bathing and how often to bathe your pets:-

Bathing is a very integral part of every one of us including our beloved pets. It keeps them

Healthy and also it keeps their skin and coat healthy. Most of our dogs can’t keep calm.

They have a habit of exploring everything around them in accordance with the freedom

given to them. Dogs have a habit, in particular, they tend to leave their scent wherever

they go. For that, they will rub their body against the wall or any other object and in this

process, they accumulate dirt and other particulates. In order to keep them away from

this and make them feel free as well bathing become an important grooming practice.

Usually, it is recommended a bath twice a week but it may vary in accordance with dogs’

daily schedule, for example, if a dog is going swimming regularly then he only needs

a bath with just water and drying, Bathing helps them to remove loose hairs, dirt, other

particulates etc. Before going for a bath, a general skin and coat examination is

recommended for any skin infections or occurrence of any tick and flea infection or any

kind of injury. If everything is normal then one should go for a mild shampoo and

conditioner. If you find any kind of signs of infection or infestation then it’s in the best interest

of the pest to approach a veterinarian and go for proper advice from the expert.

Bathing frequency depends on many reasons like:

- Weather condition

- Lifestyle of a dog (Hunting dog/ Family dog/ Swimming dog)

- Medical Condition

- Breed

In winters it’s better to give a bath every 15-20 days with Luke's warm water. In winter it's

important to dry the coat with a Hair Dryer to ensure complete drying. But if dogs get dirty

then instead of using water one can opt for Dry shampoo or Foaming shampoo which

do not require water and can be done using a wet towel. In the summer season, it's better to

bathe your dog twice a week time. The time may vary according to the lifestyle of the dog.


We will have a separate blog on lifestyle and bathing correlations.

In case of any medical condition, one should visit a veterinarian and take

recommendations and treatment (if any) from him.


Regarding breed, we will have a separate blog as it’s a huge topic on its own.

Grooming Tips Step by Step - Boops and Bleps

                                           



Brushing is very important exercise to keep your dog coat healthy and shiny. It improves overall coat
health of dog and make them mentally healthy. It is the first step to properly take care of dog’s coat. In
this article we will study the step-by-step guide to properly brush dogs coat. 

Step1: General Handling:

It is very necessary to make your dog comfortable before you start brushing. This step should generally
start while your dog is still a puppy as early training is very easy rather than training while they are adult.
Start by patting and stroking different parts of their body, praise and award with treat to make them
calm and easy to handle. Start from patting them on chest are, shoulders, sides and gradually move
towards the back. Once they are comfortable try touching each leg, lift their paws slightly one by one
and gently touch the footpads and nails and also ears and under the chin. Most of the puppy will allow
you to do but if they are aggressive or over reacting best was to control them is by giving them treat of
their choice.

Step 2: Introduction with Brush:

Before introduction one must ensure to select right kind of Brush as per the coat of Dog. If you are a dog
owner than you are probably aware that dogs are curious and they will treat brush as a toy or anything
which is available to chew. So, it becomes important to associate Brush with something that is pleasant.
Start with introduction of Brush with Tasty Dog treat. Once he is comfortable with brush around reward
with dog treat so that he can cooperate during the process.

Step 3: Brushing Gently

One the Dog is comfortable and relaxed, start brushing lightly and gently on shoulder and chest areas. If
they are calm reward them with treat and gradually increase the brushing time and number of strokes.
Extend to other parts of the body while brushing in the direction of the hair growth. Repeat this process
two or three times till the dog becomes completely comfortable with it.
If there are any mats, tangle or knots then do not put force to remove them as it may cause pain and
discomfort. Mats and Tangles should be carefully removed with right kind of scissors.
Brush occasionally in direction opposite to hair growth to check the skin condition and occurrence of
ticks, fleas and dirt.

This process might take more than one day as initially the dog might not get comfortable with it so
owner must halt the process and continue on other day. Rewarding each time can make some stubborn
dog comfortable within few days.

Note: This whole process should be done calmly and using soft hands. If dog is not cooperating than
one should not show any kind of aggression as it might lead to development of bad behavioral traits in
dogs. If after trying different brushing technique the dog is not cooperating than the final solution is to
consult a local Veterinarian or groomer for better advise.

Step 4: Treat for good Session

It is very important that the dog enjoys the session. Initially keep the session small and gradually
increasing the time session by session. To make it a pleasant exercise treat your dog with treat or
peanut butter during the exercise and after completion of the process praise the dog and tret them with their favorite treat.

Tangling, dullness, Mats and dirt are some indications that the dog may require brushing. Brushing may take few minutes to hours depending upon type of condition and coat of the dog. 

Medium to Long haired dogs require more frequent brushing as compared to dogs with short hair as former are prone to Mats, Tangles and knots. Some dog breeds have very short hairs and might not be in need of brushing. Instead, occasional use of soft grooming glove is sufficient to remove loose hairs.

General Guide:

•  Smooth and Short Haired Dogs:  Brushing once fortnightly to remove loose hair is sufficient. Example: Labrador, Rottweiler etc. 

•  Short and Dense furred dogs: Brush once a week or 14 days. Example: German shepherd, Husky etc.

For such kind of dogs mild brushing after every visit is very important as it will remove any kind of dirt, leaves or insects attached to the dogs’ fur. Dogs those are into swimming should be cleaned with normal water and brushed to remove any kind of harmful objects from fur. 

What if dog is not brushed regularly?

Neglecting this exercise can have serious health implication on health of dogs. Dogs can become prone to many kinds of skin infections and allergies. Not Brushing your dogs may lead to Mats, Tangles and knots on their coat. Mats and knots tend to absorb moisture and become source of some serious skin infections.

While grooming humans should observe the skin of the dog. In case of any redness, ticks or spots one should immediately contact a veterinarian so that proper diagnosis and treatment can be done.
