If you are tired of wrestling with your dog when trying to trim his nails, bring him to South Bay Veterinary Hospital for grooming. Our Chula Vista veterinarian and dog groomer will make sure that your dog receives the care and treatment he deserves. Our veterinary clinic also offers grooming services for cats. Professional pet grooming is essential for your pet's overall well-being. If anything out of the ordinary is noticed, our veterinary staff is trained to handle it properly.

Pet Grooming Services

Our trained dog groomer is trained to handle even the most unruly of dogs and other pets during the grooming process. Professional grooming includes shampooing your pet's fur and brushing the fur to prevent matting and tangles. Your pet's nails will be clipped so that they do not scratch you and others or make walking difficult. Our groomers will also clean your pet's ears and express his anal glands to prevent infection or discomfort.

Benefits of Professional Grooming

A lot of dogs and cats dislike being washed or brushed. At our animal vet clinic, our groomers are trained to handle even the most unruly of pets. If necessary, our veterinarian is on hand to sedate your pet during the grooming process, so that our groomer can work effectively.

Grooming also prevents diseases or conditions from developing. If our groomer notices a rash, scratch or other mark on your pet's skin while washing or brushing him, our veterinary dermatologists can take a look at the area and prescribe a course of treatment. Our groomers will also spot ticks or fleas on your pet's skin and treat them.

Keeping your pet's hair brushed and clean prevents matting, especially in cats with long hair or in dog breeds such as golden retrievers. If the hair becomes matted, the pet's skin can become irritated.
