Grooming is good for your pet’s health Whether you are looking for an expe - rienced pet groomer, or prefer to cut, trim and bathe your pet yourself, Puff & Fluff Grooming has options for you. Liz Illg, founder and owner of Puff & Fluff Grooming, shares the do’s and don’ts of pet grooming. “Taking care of a pet is a lot of work,” she points out. “Throughout my years working in the pet care industry, I know just how many folks are unsure of how to properly groom their pets” (both cats and dogs). Illg explains this includes brushing, trimming (including the nails), and also bathing. But being intimidated by the process is no excuse not to do it. www.northcentralnews.net North Central News May 2019 – Page 15
