What can you give a dog to tranquilize him for grooming?

In: Dog Grooming [Edit categories]

Answer:

Maybe you chose the wrong wording, but definitely do NOT tranquilize your dog. Tranquilizing is used for wild animals in situations where you can do nothing else but that. I would recommend asking your dog's veterinarian if they offer a grooming service. And if your dog is really that vicious when confronted, you should once again seek a vet and see what's causing your dog's strange behaviors.

the vet can offer a tranquilizer or something to make your dog drouzy if he is unable to be groomed. but you should be very careful these can come with health issues they are a last resort. most salons WILL NOT groom a dog that is completely knocked out.
