The De-Shedding Process Explained: Saying Goodbye to Pet Hair

In the heart of New York, space is tight and pet hair is even tighter. Let's reclaim your home.

The Struggle: New York Shedding Season

Living in a cozy New York apartment means sharing every square inch with your furry friend. During shedding season, that often means finding hair in your coffee, on your favorite black blazer, and drifting across your hardwood floors like tumbleweeds. While shedding is a natural process, the buildup of undercoat in a climate-controlled city environment can become overwhelming for both the owner and the dog.

Why Professional Care Matters

Many pet owners believe a simple bath at home is enough. However, a professional de-shedding treatment at Ink & Paw is a multi-step therapeutic process designed to reach the deep undercoat that regular brushing misses. We don't just wash your dog; we systematically remove the expired hair before it ends up on your furniture.

Our Signature 4-Step Process

1. Deshedding Soak

We use specialized omega-3 enriched shampoos that help nourish the skin and loosen the undercoat follicles.

2. High-Velocity Air-Force

Using state-of-the-art high-velocity dryers, we safely blast the loose hair away from the skin before the brushing even begins.

3. Precision Grooming

Our stylists use specialized undercoat rakes and fur-stripping tools tailored to your dog's specific breed and coat texture.

4. Protection

A final conditioning spray seals the coat to prevent matting and reduce future breakage.

The Benefits go Beyond Cleanliness

  • Reduced Allergens: Removing dander trapped in the undercoat helps NYC families breathe easier.
  • Temperature Control: A clear coat allows the dog's skin to breathe during humid summers.
  • Less Time Cleaning: Spend your weekends at Prospect Park, not vacuuming the sofa.
