For
information on FURminator SHED-Less Treatment, please visit their web
site.
Improve the
appearance of your pet and your environment with the FURminator
shed-less treatment . . . a special anti-shedding treatment that
dramatically reduces the mess and clean up of unwanted pet hair.
The secret
to the FURminator treatment is a patent-pending tool designed to
stop the shedding where it begins in the undercoat of your pet.
This revolutionary grooming device utilizes a unique blade that
removes loose hair while leaving your pet with a shiny and healthy
coat.
For
information on the HydroSurge Bathing System, please visit their web
site.
For any groomer
who is still bathing by hand, please check out the HydroSurge web site
and information on the HydroSurge Bathing Systems. It is well worth
the investment because it will save the wear and tear on your hands
and it does get the animals a lot cleaner than bathing by hand. I've
found that the animals I work with really enjoy the massage they get
while I'm bathing them. I have a few who get so relaxed that they will
even start to fall asleep in the bath. I've found that by using the
HydroSurge Bathing System the shampoos, conditioners, medicated shampoos,
etc. are much more effective, the animals are much more cleaner and
relaxed, and my hands aren't stressed from bathing by hand.

INC.
MDC
ROMANI, INC. is another wonderful company that produces the Clipper
Vac system and dryer that I use. I want to refer any groomer to their
web site for product information. If you aren't using the Clipper Vac
system, you are really missing out. I've found that it's taken off a
lot of the actual clipping time, there's no more back brushing, the
clipper blades stay cool so there is hardly any chance of clipper burn,
I'm not breathing in all that hair, it's easier on my hands, and the
dogs turn out so much nicer than when I was clipping the traditional
way.
