For her snowball blowout, Pax’e eats while the snowballs are gently blown away and I brush her to prevent matting.
Before this last huge snowfall, I slowly desensitized her to the high velocity blower, first on low velocity and cool temperature, then low/medium, then high/cool and worked up to high/hot.
For this snowball blowout, I used high velocity and medium temperature and sprayed her with detangling solution to help the brush go through smoothly.
Previously without this process, we could only treat her snowballs with a wet, temped wash cloth or rinse her in the tub which was slow to dry and resulted in more matting.
If we left the snowballs to melt on their own, she would chew at them and make the matting worse.
In short, the high velocity blower allows us to relatively quickly remove the snowballs while she eats half her breakfast in treats.
I used the Jellyfish, here. Take a look. You may find something you like better. And note – Pax’e might make a penny or two if you buy something through her website
