We recommend getting your puppy around 12 weeks of age (once they are fully vaccinated). The earlier and more times a puppy can experience being groomed the easier it will be for them when they are older.

This is very dependent on the breed, coat type, lifestyle and age of the dog. We recommend anywhere from 4-12 weeks. Longer coats will require a higher frequency of grooms compared to shorter coats.

YES!! The more grooming a dog experience the more grooming becomes part of their everyday life the happier the dog will be. Brushing and bathing between grooms is essential to prevent matting and keep on top of healthy skin.

Every groom is different and tailored to the individual pet, a full groom includes:

- Health Check

- Nail clipping

- 2 Deep washes

- Conditioning treatment

- Blow-dry

- Brush Out

- Clipping and Styling

Grooming times will vary depending on the breed, age and style required. On average a full groom will last 2 hours.

Grooming costs will always be dependent on the individual pet. We always ask you get in contact with us and organise a meet and treat and we can discuss pricing once we have met your pet understand the bespoke groom needed.

Severe matting occurs when hair knots/felts together close to the skin, continuous brushing to try and remove the matts will be painful and unfair on the pet. The safest and kindest way to remove them is by using a blade which can safely get between the hair and the skin. In majority of cases this will be a short blade which will only leave a small amount of hair behind.

We can groom pets with fleas this does incur additional costs and will need to be arranged at the end of the day when there are no other dogs in the salon.

We don’t groom dogs in season, there is a risk of infection when bathing dogs and we don’t believe it is fair on the dog to be put through a groom when in season we ask for you to reschedule your groom for when the dog is finished.

Dogs diets have changed rapidly over the years, majority of dogs are on softer foods and kibbles compared to raw food and bones, this results in less natural cleaning of the teeth on harder substances like bone.
