All groomed up and ready to pose

MANILA, Philippines - Keeping your pet well-groomed is not only a great way to keep him cute and clean, but also helps you detect any health problems that would otherwise not be noticed. And when it comes to grooming, it is best to leave it to Pet Expess, the one-stop pet shop for haircut, nail trimming, ear cleaning and more.

Pet Express, the Dog and Cat Shop, has various grooming packages and à la carte services to suit your pet’s needs. Expertly trained pet groomers employ nothing but tender loving care as they give your pet a bath, haircut with blow dry, trim their nails, clean their ears, brush their teeth, and more.

Pet Express shares some tips on how you can make your furry friends look and feel their best:

• Make it a point to brush the coat of your pet as often as possible to prevent hair build-up and excess shedding. More than making your pet feel good, you’ll bond with you beloved pet as you brush his hair.

• Pets generally consider nail trimming as an unpleasant experience, as they do not like their paws handled. You’ll have an easier time if you get them used to touching their paws when you praise or pet them.

• Regularly check your pet’s ears since this is a prime breeding spot for bacteria and yeast. Their ears should have a healthy pink glow; and if not, have your pet examined by a veterinarian as these may indicate some poor health symptoms.

Pet Express is located at the ground floor of SM Cubao, Araneta Center.
