Dogs with long haired coats need to be looked after well. Not only by regular visits to the parlour but brushing in between visits. I offer 2 extra services to help you keep dogs coat in the best possible condition between full grooms– See Wash & Brush &Just Brushing
Matted or knotty coats –
I obviously want to keep your dogs coat to the length and style you like but this not always possible with matted coat
Dogs with matted or knotty coats take much longer to fully groom
It can be very uncomfortable or distressing for the dog (Although I try to be as gentle as possible)
If the coat is severely matted it may require the coat to be fully clipped off (please see Grooming Policy)
This may incur a surcharge

Puppies
It is advisable to get your puppies used to the grooming process as soon as possible. The younger they start coming the more likely they are to learn to enjoy the experience

This is within a 3 mile radius of the parlour

Not Just Dogs
It is not only dogs that need grooming some cats, rabbits or even guinea pigs also require it. I am happy to take all animals that require grooming or just need their nails clipping. House rabbits in particular need their nail cutting on a regular bases.
Although I will bath rabbits and guinea pigs if needed, please think carefully before asking for this. It is a very stressful experience for them and whilst I take everycare it is done at the owner risk.
Price – See Nails or Just Brushing for relevant price
