Why pets get anxious during grooming
Pets may feel anxious because grooming involves touch, sound, water, restraint, new people and unusual tools. Dogs may fear dryers or nail trimming. Cats may fear carriers and unfamiliar handling.
Signs of grooming anxiety
Signs may include hiding, shaking, panting, excessive meowing, growling, scratching, biting, trying to escape, freezing, drooling or restlessness.
How All Tails handles anxious pets
The team helps the pet settle before beginning. If the pet becomes too stressed, the session can be paused or stopped. Pet-parent support may be requested for very anxious pets.
