Spa Tails
By Groomer: Nina Zarceno
We bring the luxury Hollywood A-list Spa services directly from L.A to your beloved pets’ second home: SNUG PET RESORT! Aromatherapy, deep massaging medicated baths, blueberry facials, soothing hypo-allergenic treatments and paw balm moisturizing ointments, there really is nothing we won’t spoil our clients with. Our professional team is highly trained to not only maintain and help restore your furry pal’s coat but to search for any dermatitis or skin issues. We have made it our goal to help catch any developing skin irritations and go straight to the source to solve the issue. Whether it is caused by seasonal allergies, food allergies, fleas or an uncommon irritation, our spa team is ready and willing to help.
No Fleas? Yes, Please!
Speaking of seasons changing, were you aware of the critters coming into town? That’s right, flea season is fast approaching, and we have a few tips to help you keep these critters off of our furry friends. A good medication to have your pets on is Comfortis. This is a chewable tablet given once a month. It helps kill fleas within 30 minutes of digestion and is indicated for the prevention of flea infestations. If you are also treating your pal for other parasites, ask your vet or schedule a consultation with Dr. Ashbaugh for a new medication in town that treats for three. Trifexis treats for fleas, hookworms, whipworms and roundworms, along with heart disease. We, as your spa team, offer a flea and tick preventative shampoo known as Wildthing.
Fluffy Coats, Warm Hearts
The only thing more rewarding than grooming a client’s dirty little beast into a beautiful fluffy pet is grooming a rescue pup. Grooming has actually, in many cases, helped rescue pups overcome trust issues and is also part of saving dogs’ lives. One might ask how grooming saves a dog’s life? For those of you who like statistics, most rescue facilities along with ASPCA report that when rescue dogs get groomed, it raises the adoption rate to 30 percent! In other words, it changes an animal’s odds of finding a loving home from 60 to 90 percent. Snug is a house with a huge heart and desire to help out as much as possible, especially to those in need who cannot speak for themselves. In the Spa Center, we carry HOPE shampoo and conditioner, a hypo-allergenic wash that donates half of its proceeds to the animals in need here in San Diego. So, pet owners if you are ever interested, please feel free to make a special request for HOPE. But wait! Our spa team won’t stop there; we would also like to offer a special to all prospective adopters. Bring your newly adopted family member in to us for its first groom, and the entire spa treatment will be on us!
I believe what makes our spa unique is the passion and love that flows from the core of our hearts to your furry friend’s. We stand at our doors ready and waiting for any tangled pup that walks in. We are here to help, serve and spoil our Most Valuable Pets!
