Customers tell us about the horrible urine stains on the back of their dogs’ hind legs. We are often asked what products will help to remove the urine stains, and to prevent them in the future.

White on White Shampoo by Chris Christensen Systems gently brightens and enhances the natural color of the coat. It is safe to use on any color coat since it does not contain bleach or peroxide.

Once the initial urine stains are gone, use Chris Christensen Ice on Ice Finishing Spray to prevent further staining. Ice on Ice actually helps repel dust, dirt and urine! It works by creating a barrier on the coat to prevent any further urine stains from soaking into the cuticle. Used daily, Ice on Ice should help to prevent any further urine stains on the hind legs of the coat.

There are several different shampoos formulated to bring out different colors in the coat by Chris Christensen Systems. One of the most frequent questions asked about them is, "Which one do I use?"

White on White is formulated to be used on all coats. It does not contain bleach or peroxide, and the optical brighteners will illuminate any color.

Gold on Gold is recommended for golden coats with darker colors intermixed, such as Belgian Tervurens, Yorkshire Terriers, and brindles.

Black on Black is for use on black or brown coats. It can also be used to deepen the color of red coats.

For salt and pepper coats, use Black on Black to deepen the dark parts of the coat, and White on White to bring out the silver strands. Apply White on White to white areas first, then Black on Black in the black areas.

Mars Coat Kings are multi-stripping-curry-combs. In other words, they can do just about anything when it comes to grooming! Regular stripping knives can only remove small amounts of fur at a time. But a Mars Coat King can strip large areas very quickly. A Mars Coat King quickly and easily removes loose hair, especially the undercoat. It also works well for dematting and detangling. Coat Kings leave hair full and healthy.

Mars Coat Kings are unique in design. They have curved, sharpened blades with rounded tips for safety, and are firmly attached to a smooth wooden handle which is very easy to hold and work with. They are perfect for use either right or left handed. Coat Kings are available in a variety of sizes and styles to suit your needs.

Mars Coat King work with all breeds and coat types. They even work for cats and horses! Because of their versatility, many groomers have deemed Coat Kings indispensable. They give a show dog quality look without the extra work. Coat Kings save time, and the coat. Try one and see how much time you can save!

A finishing spray is used before scissoring coat to a final finish. It is usually a silicone type of spray. Some sprays use natural silicone, while some are more of a synthetic type. Most groomers mix the finishing spray with water and put it in a fine mist spray bottle.

The purpose of a finishing spray is to seal moisture into each hair so a comb glides through more easily and lifts the coat more evenly. To make it work properly, you must have the right comb for the type of coat you are working with. This will help to lift the hair where you need it for scissoring.

Spritz a little finishing spray onto the coat. Comb it through by using long, even strokes going against the lay of the coat so the hair gets lifted to the desired height. . Shake the area you are working with to loosen the coat. Then scissor. Because of the quick time frame, the spray won’t hurt your scissors! The coat will be straighter and easier to comb through each time.
