Why Buy a Specialized Dog Grooming Table When The Kitchen Table Might Seem Fine?

Dog grooming is always a much more simple process when we are able to reach all areas of a dog’s coat, and get to their nails, without having to bend down and contort ourselves into difficult positions. The easiest way to get around this issue is to groom our dogs on a table or similar platform, rather than on the floor. For some, the simple solution here is to pick up the dog, put them on the kitchen table and work there. This certainly offers a better height, but
there are far more benefits in buying a specialist dog grooming table instead.

Dog grooming tables offer height adjustments for easy access for different dogs

The kitchen table is at a set height where you can lift a pet onto the surface, or get them to jump up if they are able, and work with greater ease. The problem is that there is no way to alter this for different animals and different needs. The beauty of the adjustable dog grooming table is that they have a height lift – some manual and hydraulic and others electrics – to get the dog in the right position. They are also built to hold the weight. The other great thing about this height adjustment is that animals can get on and be raised up to an appropriate height. This is perfect for bigger dogs that are too heavy to lift, or older dogs that cannot jump.

Dog grooming tables are a safer option – for both you and your pet

This height adjustment provides greater safety for the animal, but this safety also continues in the use of restraints and specialist non-slip surfaces on these dog grooming tables. You want your pet to be a safe as possible during the process with no risk of accidents. Placing a towel on the kitchen table could get a little dangerous. At the same time, this approach with these specialized dog grooming tables is also much safer for the owners. Some of the mechanical lift tables can be a little tough on the muscles at times. But, it is better than risking your back lifting dogs and bending over.

Dog grooming tables offer greater convenience for grooming

Dog Sitting on TableThe kitchen table may seem like the most convenient approach at first but, as you will see from the issues above, this theory is soon disproved. In addition to issues with security and height, there is the simple fact that the kitchen table was not built for the job. The best grooming tables have arms with restraints and storage areas where users can keep their tools. The kitchen table has nothing. Also, it is often easier to place these tables in the most convenient position for ease of movement and access to electrical outlets. Also, what happens if the grooming takes longer than anticipated and the kids come home expecting their dinner?

Some dog owners won’t want to spend lots of money on a dog grooming table for occasional jobs, this is understandable. Still, it is much more beneficial for all concerned to invest in specialist dog grooming table at the right price point. Compare costs, brands, features and purposes to get an idea of the best model for your
needs.
