How we work
I work one to one with the dog. Each dog is bathed in organic, natural and vegan shampoo specially selected for their coat type in the state of the art hydrobath, dried with a high velocity drier (with a snood to protect their ears) before moving to the table to be straight/fluff dried. Once they are completely dry and knot free the coat is ready to be groomed. They may be clipped, they may be scissored, it could be hand stripped - this bit depends on the breed or type of dog we're doing. All grooms include nails (where possible and necessary - depending on behavior) They will also receive clipping of sanitary areas and in/underfoot and a thorough ear cleaning along with a basic health check.
Please contact us for pricing, we don't offer a set price list as this varies between different breeds, size & the condition of your pup

Additional Services
Nail Trimming:
Why is regular nail trimming so important?
- Dogs have an amazing 25 bones in each foot!
- The nail bed is designed as a shock absorber
- Long nails reduce the shock absorbing effect of the nail bed
- The longer the nails the more impact on the bones in the foot
- This can lead to the onset of arthritis in the foot which, in turn, can lead to muscle wastage
- Keeping the nails trimmed regularly is a vital role in preventing arthritis
Nail trimming is recommended every 3 weeks to keep a healthy foot structure. You can choose a treatment to best suit you and your dog.
