Phillipsburg Pet Grooming

Clean Pets Are Happy Pets

Your pet likes feeling clean as much as you do. In order to protect your pet’s health and happiness, we recommend regular grooming. Your pet’s hygienic needs are much different from yours, but the Phillipsburg pet grooming team at Warren Animal Hospital can help you make sure your pet is getting everything they need to feel fresh.

Grooming services at Warren Animal Hospital include:

• Anal gland expression
• Ear cleaning
• Nail trimming
• Medicated baths

Pet grooming doesn’t have to be difficult or complicated. Next time you bring your pet in for their regular wellness exam, ask us about our grooming services.

Medicated Baths

Medicated baths can help ease many skin conditions in your pet. If he or she suffers from seborrhea (a noncontagious condition that can cause the skin to become dry and flaky or oily and scaly), a medicated bath can help alleviate the itching. Pets with allergies, flea infestations, and other skin issues may also find relief with a medicated bath.

We can recommend a bath after we’ve examined your pet and diagnosed the problem. Illnesses unrelated to the skin, such as thyroid disease, can also cause skin problems in pets, so we want to be sure we’re treating the root of the problem, not just a symptom.

Nail Trimming

Trimming your pet’s nails at home can be tricky, especially if your pet doesn’t like their paws to be touched. It’s important that you keep your pet’s nails trimmed and neat, otherwise your pet may suffer from ingrown nails or infection. The veterinarians at Warren Animal Hospital can help you learn how to better trim your pet’s nails at home. We are also able to give your pets a trim for you as part of your regular check-ups.

Ear Cleaning

While our pets are typically very good at grooming themselves, the ears can be tricky for them to reach on their own. Cleaning your pet’s ears regularly can ensure that they don’t suffer from any build-up or hearing loss. If you’re unable to clean your pet’s ears yourself, our veterinary team can help.

Anal Gland Expression

Cats and dogs have a special gland next to their anus that produces a liquid substance that is usually expressed during a bowel movement. Sometimes, the liquid inside the gland can become thick or impacted, which can lead to discomfort as well as infection.

If your pet seems to be in pain while having a bowel movement, or if they’re rubbing their backsides on the ground (or your favorite rug), your pet may need their anal glands expressed. Our pet grooming team in Phillipsburg is here to help.

Avian Nail and Beak Trimming

Our staff has the equipment and expertise needed for nail and beak trims for your feathered family member. With our grooming skills, we’ll make sure not to get too close to the blood vessels within the toenail. Birds who get their nails regularly trimmed tend to be easier to handle, so you and your bird can benefit from regular toenail clippings when it comes to spending time outside of their cage.

We also provide beak trimmings for all types of birds, as beaks continue to grow throughout a bird’s entire lifetime. Beak trimmings may be required due to genetic reasons or other medical conditions, and for your pet’s safety, they should be trimmed professionally to avoid any accidents or complications from occurring. Routine grooming on your pet’s beak prevents any weight loss that may result from a misshapen or overgrown beak from occurring.
