very silky and easy to keep clean. A bath every few weeks and a good brushing once a week should be all

It takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to bathe, dry & groom your dog. Active Paws does 2 dogs at a time, so 1 to 1.5 hours doesnt necessarily mean per dog if you have multiple. In a grooming shop your dog probably spends 6-8 hours in a cage. See similar questions...

Pick-up times are offered in a first-in, first out fashion, but many times our clients choose to drop their dogs off on the way to work and pick them up on the way home; this means many times clients arriving in the middle of the morning still have the opportunity for the first pick-up slot. We strive to work with your schedule, so should you require a special pick-up time, please let us know when you schedule your appointment. No! That is the beauty of our facility and mindset.

Start early to introduce your Beardie to his life-time hair care. Baby Beardies can be groomed in one minute. The idea is to acclimate the pup to be still for longer periods of time until they can spend an hour quietly accepting brushing and combing. Most owners do a thorough grooming at least once a week. (During the puppy shed, it's wise to increase to two or three times a week.) Lay the Beardie on its side and mist with water or anti-tangle spray. See similar questions...

The issue of whether or not there is a difference in personality seems to be a topic of debate within the Chihuahua community. Some claim that there is no difference in personality; others claim that longcoats have a tendency to be "soft-tempered" while smoothcoats tend to be more aggressive. Smoothcoats tend to have coarser fur than longcoats -- almost like bristles in some cases. Smoothcoats shed more than longcoats. However, longcoats do shed as well. See similar questions...

The Maltese coat takes about a year to grow to the floor, but then only with special care. You should use good shampoos and conditioners, bathing no less than once a week and as it gets longer maybe every 4 days. Some show breeders wrap the hair so it won't break, taking it out and rewrapping it every day or two. Some put the dog in oil or do both. FAQ Index See similar questions...

Between 2 ? 4 hours in normal humidity conditions. Thereafter the next coat can be applied without sanding. One can work quite fast this way. See similar questions...

A "long coat" has a long, wavy, soft top coat (not lying closely) without undercoat, usually with a parting down the back, flags on ears and legs and tail. The "long coat" is a disqualifying fault within the Breed Standard, and as such is not suitable for Showing or Breeding. However this in no way detracts from its ability as a pet and companion, in fact many people have a preference for them. Long Coats will generally be sold on a "Limited Register" Pedigree (see below). See similar questions...

A "long stock coat" has a long double coat (Long Stockhaar) with long, wavy, topcoat not lying closely, with undercoat, feathering on ears and legs, bushy breeches and bushy tail forming flags below. See similar questions...

The function of lime harling dictates that it should be less durable than the host masonry, and can in fact lengthen the life span of a building if applied and properly maintained. However, we have seen examples of lime harling which remain after hundreds of years with little maintenance ? even on some ruinous buildings! The use of an appropriate specification, and a high standard of workmanship will enhance the lifespan of an external lime coating. See similar questions...

It is imperative that the Bichon undergo regular grooming otherwise the coat mats. Since the Bichon does not shed, mats are a serious concern, as they may result in skin sores, tearing and skin disease. Heavily matted animals must be shaved to solve the problem. Grooming means a thorough brushing at least once a week (and then you will find mats but they shouldn't be too bad). Daily brushing is much better. If done on a daily basis, it will take approximately 15 minutes. See similar questions...

We love to keep your dogs looking their absolute best and prefer not to shave them if it can be avoided. Our #1 commitment is to the safety and comfort of the dog which means that it is often more humane to just shave the dog than it would be to de-mat him. There is a common misconception that if you have a "Non-Shedding" breed (such as a Poodle or Bichon Frise) that they don't need to be brushed and combed. See similar questions...

Probably the most common way to cut a Maltese is the "puppy cut", which is cut fairly even all over with a little length left on the head, legs and tail. However, there are also other cuts used on Maltese. There is a Poodle imitation, a Schnauzer imitation or just about any cut you like. Personally, I like the "puppy cut". See similar questions...

Powder coating lead times vary depending on the volume /size / type of material. Generally the process of powder coating takes approximately half a day, though consideration must be taken on the time of year and how much demand there is within the industry. Contact us at the early stage in the planning process so that we can advise you on suitable methods of design and fabrication. Many delays are caused by inappropriate design and a lack of understanding of the powder coating process. See similar questions...
