Easy key to staticfree grooming

-

In the colder months, dry indoor air sparks static electricit­y, which can make grooming your furry friend trickier than usual. The simple strategy to avoid getting zapped? Have your pet stand on a hardwood or tile floor or on a 100 percent cotton towel before you begin a grooming session. Unlike rugs and carpets, these surfaces don’t hold static, so you can brush your sweetie without getting shocked.
