At-Home Grooming Routine

  • Brushing: Daily with a slicker brush/pin brush and comb to prevent mats and tangles.
  • Bathing: Every 2–3 weeks with a nourishing, whitening shampoo.
  • Ear and Eye Care: Check for build-up and overgrown ear canals weekly.
  • Paw & Nail Care: Trim nails every 2–3 weeks.
  • Teeth: Brush with dog-safe toothpaste 3 times/week minimum.

When to call Lola’s Pet Salon

  • If mats develop, a professional de-matting is essential.
  • If coat trimming or a fresh topknot is needed, Lola’s stylists await.
  • For persistent tear stains, a delicate facial cleanse will work wonders.
