Is having my dog professionally groomed okay in colder weather??

So, I have a dog, Drake. He is a Rott & Lab mix. He is about seven months old. I was wondering if it would be okay to have him groomed professionally… I know I don’t need to bathe him & stick him back outside to dry, but what if he is already dried? He just rolls around in the mud & gets real dirty and stinky. I also need to have him neutered and don’t wanna take him all dirty.

Answer #1

I’d say no. save the grooming for warmer weather. rotts and labs don’t have very thick coats. they need a thicker coat so they can stay warm in winter. keep the coat, trim the nails.

Answer #2

No groomer is going to send your dog home wet. They use big dryers…

Answer #3

Yeah it’s fine. Most people that groom animals dry them off after they’re finished. My aunt takes her dog to the groomers quite a lot.

Answer #4

Thank you. =]
