Hello world! My name is Mary, and my dog is my best friend. His name is Bandit, and he's a spunky little rescue. He hates to be left alone, and I'll admit that he once broke through a screen, walked several miles to where I was, and sat outside the cafe waiting for me. Since I work from home and don't go out often, I spend a lot of time with him. However, in most cases, owners would need to crate train their dogs in those situations. Anyway, wherever you are in your relationship with your dog, I hope you find what you need in this blog. It's going to be a mixture of fun tips, ideas, and facts. Enjoy!

Find The Right Grooming Table To Handle A Variety Of Animals
Amber Knight
If you love animals, you may decide that grooming dogs and cats may be the perfect job for you. If you open up your own pet grooming company, you must ensure you have all the necessary tools to do the job. You are going to need to have a trimmer with a variety of guards and blades, scissors, and brushes. You will also need a surface on which you can groom the animals. You can find tables that are specifically designed for groomers. When you need one of these tables, you want to ensure that you get one that will work for you.
Adjustable Height
One of the things to look for when buying a grooming table is whether or not you can adjust the height. Unless you only groom animals of a specific size, you will be working on animals ranging in size from a Chihuahua to a Leonberger. That is a wide variety of sizes, and a table that is the right height to groom a chihuahua comfortably will mean that the Leonberger will be too tall for you to reach easily. A table with adjustable height levels will allow you to raise the height of the table so that you can groom the tiny dogs and lower it so you can groom the gigantic dogs. While you check to see if the table is adjustable, you might also want to see how it goes up and down, if you have to do it manually or if there are some hydraulics that will do the work for you.
Restraint Points
Restraining a dog or cat during their groom isn't a cruel thing. It's all about keeping the animal safe. When you restrain them in some way, you are making sure that the dog doesn't jump off the table and hurt themselves or you. Some restraints will make the animal more comfortable. For example, you might get a table with a belly band that you can put under dogs to help support their weight, which can be helpful for older dogs or dogs with other health issues.
To start a pet grooming business, you need to do some research and comparison shopping to find the right tools for your new business. That means you need to have some ideas on picking the best grooming table to handle the widest variety of animals in a safe way for the animals.
