Pet experts recommend that you cut your dog’s fur to about an inch in length in the warm summer months. This helps to prevent overheating which can be fatal. Any shorter than an inch can rob your dog of it’s only protection against the sun, which in turn may result in sunburns. Trying to perfect this summer doggy doo on your own can be difficult, as most animal grooming can be. Luckily, pet owners in need of pet grooming help have a slew of professional groomers to choose from, a number of which will even provide their services right in the client’s home. This is perfect for pets that do not enjoy traveling outside of the comfortable safety of their home or may be too big to transport efficiently.
