Pamper Your Pooch: Winter Wellness at Pet Care Plus

January 10, 2024

As the frosty winds of winter roll in, we know that our furry friends need a little extra TLC to keep their tails wagging. Here at Pet Care Plus, we've got the perfect remedy for the winter blues – our Winter Hot Oil (Coconut Oil) Treatment! Join us on this journey to discover how we're turning up the warmth and joy for your four-legged buddies.


Winter can be tough on your dog's skin and coat. The cold, dry air can lead to itching, flakiness, and discomfort. Additionally, the de-icing agents on the sidewalks can be harsh on their paws. This is where we step in to provide a haven of warmth and comfort for your furry friends. Our Winter Hot Oil Treatment is designed to combat the negative effects of winter weather on your dog's skin and coat.

Here are some of the incredible benefits:

Deep Moisturization: Coconut oil is renowned for its moisturizing properties. The hot oil treatment penetrates deep into the fur and skin, providing much-needed hydration and preventing dryness.


Skin Soothing: Winter often brings about skin irritations due to the cold, windy weather. The coconut oil treatment has natural anti-inflammatory properties, soothing any discomfort and promoting a healthier skin barrier.


Shiny, Lustrous Coat: Say goodbye to dull, lifeless coats. Our hot oil treatment helps restore the shine and luster of your dog's fur, leaving them looking and feeling their best.


Paw Protection: In addition to the coat, we extend our care to your dog's paws. The hot oil treatment acts as a protective barrier against the elements, keeping their paw pads soft and moisturized.


Ready to spoil your pup rotten? Just add our Winter Hot Oil (Coconut Oil) Treatment as an upgrade to their usual bath or grooming session when you book with us. It's the perfect way to show them that winter can be just as fabulous as any other season!


Our Winter Hot Oil Treatment is a hug in a bottle, ensuring your pup is snug, stylish, and ready to conquer the cold. Don't let your furry friend miss out on the cozy fun – book their pampering session today and let the winter wonder commence!
