De-Shedding Service
Are you sick and tired of having shedding dog hair messing up your house?
Do you know there is something you can do to relieve that? You can have Furtastic come to your home with the mobile salon and do a De-shed service. What is De-shedding? De-Shedding is whereas much of the dead/loose/shedding hair that is ready to come out at that time is removed. This is done using techniques, product & equipment that is aimed at removing the shedding undercoat & not damaging the Guard Hairs. Dogs need their Guard hairs to regulate their body temperature and for protection. When done correctly De-shedding allows your dog to feel more comfortable, be healthier, to regulate its body temperature properly & and for you to have less dog hair messing up your home. Dog hair grows in a 30-day cycle. Therefore, if you follow up a De-shed service every 30 days with a wash and blow dry service you will not need to suffer with an overload of dog hair messing up your home any longer. De-shedding is not a one and done service. It is recommended it is done every 4 - 8 weeks.
De-shedding is a messy service so please be aware that there will be large amounts of dog hair that is highly likely to blow into your front yard and beyond. If this bothers, you would be better to attend a bricks and mortar salon location
