Cleaning, Soothing, and Smoothing: Spring Grooming Tips

It’s spring, time for freshening up everything from inside to out, including our pets. Here are some products to help solve some of your most challenging grooming problems.

Cleaning Up

For dogs and cats with sensitive skin and troublesome allergies, try Chris Christensen's Hypo-Allergenic Smart Wash. This line is made in the USA and contains no added fragrance or dyes. The concentrated formula goes a long way and is fabulous for dissolving oils, dirt, and product build-up but is soothing and gentle to both skin and coat. Complete the bath with Smart Rinse conditioner. Added fragrance and dyes can trigger allergic responses, so they have been left out of Smart Wash and Rinse, leaving nothing but clean behind.

Mats and Tangles a Problem?

Chris Christensen recent innovation of The Cure is a game-changer. This product was developed with thick, curly coats (think “Doodles”) in mind. It can be mixed with water and used as a coat spray or rubbed directly into a damp fur. Brushing is a breeze when you add The Cure to your coat care regime.

Urine Stains & Odors

Not a problem if you incorporate Saving Grace into your spring clean routine. Specifically designed to combat coat discoloration and the lingering odor that most shampoos cannot altogether remove, Saving Grace is a game-changer. Formulated for dogs and cats, it offers a unique foaming action that goes to work tackling tough odors without drying the skin.

Drop Coat Dilemma

Precious Drop is designed to make drop coats look their absolute best. You can help create silky, flowing coats without that oily, clumpy look some sprays leave behind. Precious Drop is rich in keratin, helping to eliminate hair breakage, reduce frizz and matting, and impart a brilliant sheen.

Quench The Thirst

Winter coats can use a moisturizing boost and Quench leave-in spray is a product that lends a feather-light moisture to all coat types. Every strand of hair will benefit from the natural moisturizing ingredients designed to build healthy skin and coat.

Soothe The Sore Spots

Peace and Kindness spray and gel contain colloidal silver, commonly used by homeopathic practitioners because of its natural anti-inflammatory properties. It is known to work fast to reduce inflammation and swelling and even combat topical bacterial infections.

Spring is a time of renewal, and our pets are no exception. As the days grow longer, winter coats are shedding, and stepping up grooming practices will help make a smooth transition as lighter, warm-weather coats grow. Start off with getting your pet clean and conditioned, then tackle specific problems with products designed to make grooming easier and keep your pets' skin and coat in optimum shape.
