Seasonal blowouts, undercoat protocols, and drying-time scheduling — GroomBoard handles the double-coat workflow end to end.
Double coats should not be shaved. Document breed-specific service protocols so every groomer honors them.
Undercoats mat without regular line-brushing. Set recurring maintenance appointments so clients stay on rhythm.
Thick coats take 60–90 minutes to dry properly. Build accurate appointment durations into your scheduling.
Double-coated breeds need heavy seasonal deshedding. Send SMS reminders 6 weeks before spring and fall coat blow.
