For  K9OutdoorAdventure clients only.

Baths:







"Regular bathing keeps your dog’s skin healthy, and his
coat clean and shiny. We use
Earthbath® products, which
are formulated with natural oils and essences.  
Earthbath®  shampoo is soap-free and pH-balanced for
pet's sensitive skin. All Earthbath® pet care products are
100% bio-degradable, free of phosphates and enzymes,
and are animal cruelty-free."
(-source: Earthbath®).
We have used Earthbath® on our own dogs for years!
Earthbath® has a variety of shampoos and conditioners
to suit your dog's coat.

Brushing for our shedders:
"The FURminator removes the loose dead undercoat
without damaging your dog's topcoat. It is guaranteed to
reduce shedding up to 90%."
(- source: FURminator).
We personally recommend this service! We have had
great success with this product on our
Golden and Labrador Retriever.

Brushing for all other dogs:
The normal brushing without the FURminator.

Tooth brushing:
Brushing the teeth of your dog not only freshens their
breath but it reduces tartar and helps prevent periodontal
diseases. We use specially designed toothbrushes and
toothpaste for dogs. Your dog will receive his/her very own
toothbrush and they will receive a treat they will lick for!

Flea & Tick Control:
An Outdoor Adventure is always combined with the risk
of being exposed to parasites, such as fleas and ticks.
Therefore we require regular application of Flea & Tick
medication for all dogs participating in our
Outdoor
Adventures
. We offer you the unique service of applying
the monthly doses to help protect your dog from these
parasites.

Nail trimming:
A dog's nails can split, break or tear off.  We can make
sure your dog is in great condition to hike the trails with us.
Medium nail length is optimal for most dogs.  Nails that
are too long or short can cause pain or interfere with
traction during our exciting
Adventures.

Ear cleaning:
Dogs ears are very sensitive, especially the long hanging
ones. Cleaning the ears will prevent infection and it is an
important aspect of every dog’s grooming routine.
Cleaning of both ears with a gentle ear cleaning solution.

K9 Vacation sitting:
Dog sitting, house sitting and in our home dog boarding.
For
K9OutdoorAdventure customers only.
