Professional Grooming Service Guide
A professional de-shedding treatment is the most effective way to manage heavy shedding in double-coated breeds. The process begins with a specialized de-shedding shampoo that loosens the undercoat, followed by a conditioner that hydrates the remaining coat and skin. The real magic happens during the blow-dry: a high-velocity dryer blasts loose undercoat out of the coat in visible clouds of fur. After drying, the groomer uses de-shedding tools like the Furminator, undercoat rakes, and slicker brushes to remove any remaining loose hair. A single professional de-shedding session can reduce shedding by up to 80% for 4-6 weeks. This treatment is particularly valuable during spring and fall "coat blows" when double-coated breeds shed their undercoat en masse. Dogs that receive regular de-shedding treatments shed less at home, have healthier skin, and are more comfortable in warm weather.
