How do groomers keep dogs from moving?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Some dogs will quiet down with a towel placed over their eyes or heads; groomers may use that trick to calm down an anxious dog. Groomers also sometimes use a second tether tied around the dog's waist, or looped under one front leg to keep the dog still. Some will resort to bribery, with the owner's permission.


How do dog groomers hold dogs still?

Attached to a tall metal bar shaped as an upside down L, the noose loop restrains the dog around his or her neck. It also prevents the dog from jumping off the table.

What do groomers give dogs to calm them?

Gabapentin. Gabapentin is a medication that can be used for several purposes, including seizure control, anxiety relief, sedation, and pain management. It's a common dog sedative for grooming, travel, vet visits, and other short-term events.
