Grooming is essential for all dogs, regardless of age, breed, and fur type. A regular groom is beneficial to a dog’s health and well-being, allowing their coat and skin remain healthy. Brushing aids in coat ventilation through the removal of old, and damaged hair, whereas regular bathing can keep the levels of grease down on a dog’s skin, preventing pore blockages that lead to skin problems.

Puppy’s First Groom - £25

A puppy’s first groom is very important as it allows them to experience the sights, sounds, and smells within a grooming environment from a young age. This prepares them for future grooms and allows them to be more comfortable and even enjoy the experience as they grow and mature. It also allows them to feel more at ease and become accustomed to being handled by someone other than their owners. Handling from a young age prevents fear of being handled in other environments such as day care, and veterinary practices. Puppy's first groom is for dogs up to 5 months old.

A puppy groom includes:

• Bath and Blow Dry
• Nail Trim
• Ear Clean
• Hygiene Trim (in long haired breeds)
• Eye Trim (in long haired breeds)

A full groom is suitable for all dogs and is catered to the customer’s requirements and specifications. The full groom will start with a pre-groom, this involves a full physical check of the dog’s eyes, ears, pads, nails, coat, and skin. This gives the groomer an idea on what the dogs may need overall i.e., matt removal, specialist shampoo treatment, parasite removal. It will also give the groomer an idea of areas they may need to be more delicate with. Brushing will also be done before bathing to remove any knots and tangles.

Following the pre-groom, your dog will be bathed then brushed again, followed by a full blow dry. If your dog requires cutting/ shaving, styling, this will be done once the dog is fully dried and comfortable. The style will be subject to the customers preferences and groomers' discretion. If it is found that the dog requires more work due to matting, the groomer will discuss this with the customer prior. If your dog has a specific skin complaint or similar, then we'll happily discuss this with you and decide upon a suitable grooming product. We carry multiple shampoo and skin conditioning products that are designed to alleviate certain conditions and work in harmony with your dogs skin.

We understand that not all dogs enjoy being groomed and can have had bad previous experiences at the groomers. This can make it difficult to provide the services they need. For a nervous dog groom, we allocate 30 minutes on a regular basis (usually 2-3 weeks) to get them more comfortable with the grooming process. Splitting the grooming process down means the dog has shorter sessions but more frequently and each 30-minute slot will progress. For example, one session may
include bathing and drying, and the next slot will be clipping. Each session will begin at £20 per slot.

These sessions will usually include:
 

• Using a brush or comb on the dog whilst rewarding them.
• Rewarding the dog whilst stroking and touching different areas such as the feet and legs.
• Having the noise of the clippers whilst being rewarded.
• Having the blaster on and rewarding.
• Cutting small amounts of the fur to ease them into the process.
• Having the dog get used to being on the table and in the restraints.
