Customized Care for Every Coat and Condition
At DogCity West Seattle, we know every dog is different. That’s why we offer a full range of add-on and specialty grooming services to meet the unique needs of your dog’s breed, coat type, age, and lifestyle. Whether it’s managing excessive shedding, calming irritated skin, or adding finishing touches between full grooms, our trained grooming professionals tailor each service to deliver safe, effective, and compassionate care. These services can be scheduled alone or added to any grooming appointment for a full spa-day experience.
What to Expect from Our Specialized Grooming Services
Each of our special grooming services is performed by experienced, attentive staff using professional tools and premium products.
DeShedding Treatments
Perfect for double-coated and high-shedding breeds, our de-shedding treatment uses specialized tools and shampoos to remove loose undercoat and minimize shedding. It leaves your pup with a lighter, healthier coat and keeps your home cleaner.
Dematting Services
If your dog’s coat has tangles or mats, we use gentle detangling techniques and products to break them down safely. We never force or pull—our goal is comfort and coat recovery.
Medicated Shampoo Baths
For dogs with skin conditions, allergies, or irritations, we offer soothing, vet-approved medicated shampoos. These treatments help calm itchiness, reduce inflammation, and support healing.
Hand Stripping
Wire-haired breeds like Terriers benefit from hand stripping, a technique that removes dead coat by hand to maintain texture and natural shine. This breed-specific service is done gently and professionally for lasting results.
Face, Paws & Fanny Trims
A quick tidy-up service to keep high-maintenance areas looking sharp between full grooms. We trim around the eyes, paws, and sanitary areas for a clean, polished look.
Anal Gland Expression
Performed gently by trained staff, this service helps relieve discomfort and prevent gland impaction. It’s a quick but important step for your dog’s hygiene and comfort.
Teeth Brushing
Freshen your dog’s breath and support oral health with our gentle teeth brushing service. We use dog-safe toothpaste and techniques to clean the teeth and gums during grooming.
Each of these services is done with your dog’s safety and well-being in mind. Let us know your dog’s needs, and we’ll customize their session to deliver the best care possible.
