Matting is a serious conversation that takes up a large part of groomer and client communication space. When you’re juggling tasks (especially after a shavedown) it can be really challenging to explain the situation thoroughly, let alone set up the pet owner for success next time. Especially when you’re having the conversation multiple times a day.
Never struggle to find the words again! The Quick Guide to Matting Pamphlet explains it all for you.

Matting is a serious conversation that takes up a large part of groomer and client communication space. When you’re juggling tasks (especially after a shavedown) it can be really challenging to explain the situation thoroughly, let alone set up the pet owner for success next time.
Especially when you’re having the conversation multiple times a day!
And this conversation isn’t just important for shavedowns - all of these topics need to be covered with new dogs, new puppies, new owners and even regulars who have become matted for whatever reason.
This pamphlet has all the information you need to share with your client, so they can read on their own time, retain the information and come back with a plan that is sustainable for them. These things take time, and there isn’t just one solution. No emotion, no back and forth, just hand it off and let the wheels turn.
This pamphlet includes:
⭐ Why dogs can be matted without “looking matted”
⭐ The benefits of a shavedown vs dematting
⭐ How to identify matting (+ a few brushing tips)
⭐ How matting affects a dog’s health and wellbeing
⭐ How to make a plan for a sustainable haircut & schedule
Cloud Grooming Creative’s Quick Guide to Matting is available as a free pdf download for you to print at home. We want education on grooming topics to be more accessible for groomers to give to their clients. Along with the free PDF, we also have options to donate if you’d like to support us make more projects like this in the future. There is no obligation to pay for the download, but we appreciate the support if you would like to and it is within your means.
You can also order pre-printed folded pamphlets from us here at Cloud Grooming Creative!
