This is a playful concept designed to bring inspiration & make grooming enjoyable.
Who doesn’t love a spa day? Let's have some fun and give your Lappy their own spa day at home! Treating your Finnish Lapphund to a dedicated pampering session not only makes grooming a positive experience but also enhances their well-being. Plus, it gives you the perfect opportunity to relax, enjoy quality time together, and strengthen the special bond that you share. Let’s create a relaxing and enjoyable spa experience for your Lappy, ensuring they feel pampered and loved!
SET THE MOOD
Begin by creating a relaxing ambiance. Dim the lights and play soft rainforest music or soothing nature sounds to help your Lappy feel at ease. Consider incorporating aromatherapy with pet-friendly essential oils, such as lavender or chamomile, to create a calming environment. Just be sure to avoid any citrus-based oils.
Next, let's consider which Lappy Pamper Treatments you'll have on offer!
Here are some delightful treatments to make your Finnish Lapphund feel truly special:
Pamper treatments
AROMATHERAPY SOAK
Transform bath time into a luxurious experience! Fill a tub with lukewarm water and add several drops of essential oils. After the standard shampoo and conditioning treatment, allow your Lappy to soak and enjoy the soothing scents. This treatment helps relax their muscles and calm their mind and they will smell amazing for weeks!
BUBBLE BATH
Make bath time playful! Use a dog-friendly bubble bath in lukewarm water to create a fun and bubbly experience. This treatment is especially enjoyable for puppies and young adults. Ensure your Lapphund feels secure in the tub, using non-slip mats if needed to keep them comfortable.
BODY MASSAGE
While your Finnish Lapphund is bathing, gently massage their coat to promote relaxation. Then provide a full-body muscle massage, focusing on their back, hind legs, and then front legs. This not only enhances relaxation, it soothes their muscles and also improves circulation. You can finish with a gentle massage around their head, face, and ears - perfect for a sleepy, content pup!
BLOW DRY
Once bath time is complete, use a microfiber towel to gently dry your Finnish Lapphund. Follow this up with a blow dryer on a low, cool setting to give their coat that extra shine. The gentle airflow will not only help with drying but also fluff up their beautiful fur. Afterward, give their coat a thorough brushing to remove any loose fur and enhance that gorgeous double coat.
Pamper Packages
CANINE FACIAL
Give your Lappy a gentle canine facial! For this treatment, use dog-safe products that are easy to find, such as: Oatmeal-based Dog Shampoo: Look for a mild oatmeal shampoo, which can help soothe and cleanse their face without irritation. This is perfect for a thorough clean while being gentle on their skin. When applying any product, be gentle and avoid direct contact with their eyes. Pet-safe Facial Wipes: These are convenient for cleaning around the eyes and muzzle. Choose wipes that are specifically formulated for dogs and free from harsh chemicals. Coconut Oil: A small amount of organic coconut oil can be applied to dry areas around the nose or on the muzzle to moisturise. Just be cautious to avoid the eyes.
This pampering facial treatment package will leave your Finnish Lapphund feeling refreshed and looking great!
