Winter care in Lowell
Cold, dry air and indoor heating dry out skin. Keep paw fur trimmed so ice and road salt do not ball up between the pads, rinse paws after walks, and ask about moisturizing baths.
Summer care
Warm months mean heavy shedding. A de-shedding treatment and regular baths keep the coat comfortable. For double-coated breeds, trim and thin rather than shave, since the coat insulates against heat and sun.
Year-round basics
Stick to a consistent grooming schedule, keep nails short, and check ears after wet or snowy weather. Our Lowell team adjusts each groom to the season.

Should I shave my double-coated dog in summer?
No. The double coat insulates against heat and protects from sunburn. Choose de-shedding and a trim instead of a shave.
How do I protect my dog's paws in winter?
Keep paw fur trimmed, rinse off road salt after walks, and consider paw balm. Trimmed paws prevent painful ice mats between the pads.
