BENEFITS OF GREAT GROOMING
Improved Health and Hygiene
Regular grooming keeps your dog’s coat clean, reduces shedding, and prevents skin irritations. It also allows us to identify potential health issues like lumps or infections early
Enhanced Comfort and Well-Being
Grooming removes tangles, mats, and excess fur, keeping your dog comfortable. A well-groomed coat reduces the risk of skin problems and helps regulate body temperature
Better Appearance and Smell
With a clean, shiny coat and proper hygiene, your pup will look and smell fantastic—perfect for everyday pride or special occasions

PRICING & POLICIES
Full Services Include: All grooming services come with a bath, brush, nail trim, and ear cleaning. Let us know if your dog has special needs, a unique history, or specific styling preferences. All our base prices may be adjusted based on the specifics of the bread and coat (New Foundland vs Golden Retreiver on the same weight class)
Additional Fees: Depending on your dog’s needs, additional charges for matting, senior care (dogs over 10 years old), a second handler, or weight class may apply. We will communicate these as soon as possible.
Cancellation Policy: Missed appointments are charged in full. We use automated reminders to ensure you stay informed. Repeat no-shows will require prepayment for future appointments.
A puppy cut is designed for your puppy's first visit to the groomer. We take extra time to acclimatize your dog to the grooming process. Puppies have a harder time sitting still for extended periods in the hopes of allowing us to do as much as they want us to do (all over body trim). We strive to make their first grooming experience as positive as possible.
