Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Why does grooming my pet cost so much?

we often hear; How much is it? Why is it so expensive? Can you do it cheaper? If I bring one dog can you do the other for free? My pet’s hair-cut costs more than my own hair! Karen down the road does it half price! You might already have said it yourself?

Putting a value on pet grooming probably isn’t something you may know much about or have even thought about, but; “I wanted to let you all into a little secret”

Our pet grooming is actually priced really well for the service you receive. You do get great value for money and here is why!

We are highly qualified in our field and hold a lot of experience along with other relatable qualifications which sets us apart.
A pet groom can be time consuming as much as we are known for being careful, gentle and quick as we can be for those nervous client but in some cases very hard and dangerous to groom dogs due to ill health or behaviour.
Your dog might be well behaved great we love that but is it overly hairy, matted, in a show cut, requires special consideration like 1-1 service or extra time or maybe even a special shampoo which we stock.
We do a routine health check on every dog which is highly important as more often than not we will notice something you haven't at home.
Unlike your hair dresser we have to deal with regularly poop in dogs coats (without mentioning the ones that poop on the floor or the table) parasites such as fleas, ticks, worms & more,
Your hair dresser doesn't risk you not sitting still, get bitten, spat at, peed over and more.
Ear cleaning, nails ect.. are all included it is a full service
Knowledge, experience & qualifications not to mention continuing our personal development your paying for.

Ask yourself would you see a unqualified Dr, dentist, dermatologist even a hair dresser?

REMEMBER - WE ARE!

Sorry to bore you here, but we have lage overheads to be able to offer this service to you. Rent, Rates, Taxes, Utility Bills, Wages, our equipment is more expensive to purchase let alone keep in top condition which effects the work done the list could go on, but you get my drift..

Do you offer grooming for all types of pets?

We specialise in dogs and have cat days once a month , but we also offer grooming services for rabbits, guinea pigs, horse clipping services

Hand stripping FAQ

Hand stripping should be done on a 2–12 weekly basis but will depend on the individual coat, temperament, and condition of the dog.

This method is common in the Terrier and Gun dog breeds and maintains the colour and texture of the coat.

Dogs must have a suitable coat, temperament, and condition for hand stripping.

Commonly, neutered dogs may not be suitable for hand stripping as changes in hormones can affect the coat’s regrowth of colour and texture, making it uncomfortable to strip for some dogs.

Hand stripping can be uncomfortable for some dogs. If this is the case, we will suggest a different technique for your dog. see below in hand strip simulation for more information.

We bath beforehand stripping, as hand stripping can leave open pores once the hair has been removed, this can make the skin susceptible to infection.

Please be aware that if the coat is really thick or is harder to pull out, there may be an additional charge which us common if left to long or not done regularly enough.

CANNOT HAND STRIP?

It all comes down to our hand strip simulation – it’s not a real hand strip! -It’s a hand strip look!

For a fraction of the price, and great for dogs who are sensitive or unsuitable for hand stripping.

Most suitable for terriers, some gun dogs, and similar breeds to meet your dog’s characteristics and breed standards.

Your dog will be clipped using a variety of lengths to achieve a hand strip look. We will be using clipping methods to achieve this.

This is a great method for owners who want the hand strip look for their dog but the dogs either don’t like hand stripping or do not have a suitable coat or skin.

This “hand strip look” service includes 2 warm wet washes, an all-over body massage, a groom through removing all that old hair and debris, and a conditioning treatment.

Please note: colour and texture may be affected.

WHY IS DOG GROOMING SO IMPORTANT?

The Importance of Regular Dog Grooming a Happy and Healthy Companion

Regular grooming helps remove dirt, debris, and dead hair from your dog's coat, which can prevent matting and tangling. This keeps their fur looking clean and healthy and allows for better air circulation to the skin, reducing the risk of skin irritations and infections. Keeping to regular grooming intervals also benefits the dog’s nails keeping them short and tidy while also preventing scratches.

Having your dog groomed at regular intervals also allows a professional to give a health check and notify you of things you could miss, this isn’t to say you’re a bad owner but it's hard to recognise change in something when you’re with them so regularly.
Also, a trained professional knows what they are looking for and keeps records, this is why it’s important to make sure your dog groomer is adequately qualified not just online course, you wouldn’t see an unqualified Dr or dentist would you?

Health Benefits for Short-Coated Dogs is still vital as they shed regularly and having them professionally groomed will get rid of all that dead coat. Not only does this improve the Skin and Coat Health it is Preventing Skin Infections by Reducing Shedding and Allergens & a professional can pick up early Detection of Skin Issues and refer you to a specialist. It’s also important and helpful for temperature regulation in dogs.
Health Benefits for Long-Coated Dogs first and foremost Mat Prevention and Coat Management which of course is part of preventing Skin Infections and Irritations Reducing Discomfort and Pain. Leaving dogs with long coats with dense coats due to not de-shedding properly or creating matting even if you brush regularly, it’s important to seek professional help because they can show you techniques and brushes suitable to your dog’s needs and also style the coat according to your needs and lifestyle.
Common Grooming Practices include Brushing and Combing but it's not that simple. All dogs require different brushing and combing Techniques. Then comes regular Bathing keeping the skin and coat clean and clear, Nail Trimming Essentials are nail clippers and files or grinders commonly used for those that do not like the clippers it's also safer with a grinder as less likely to catch the quick, speaking of quick this image shows you the anatomy of the nail you can also gradually get a dogs nails shorter if you can get close to that quick regularly, this is why dogs who regularly walk on hard surfaces for long periods of time generally will have short nails. Long claws are more prone to chipping, tearing, splitting, and breaking, which can be very painful and may require veterinary treatment. As well as being prone to damage, when a dog stands or walks on a long-clawed paw it puts pressure on the wrong parts of the foot, causing pain and discomfort.
Grooming at home as well as by a professional aids emotional well-being by strengthening the Bond Between Dog and Owner or professional. This is why it's important to find a groomer who your dog and you are happy with and stick with them. Not only is this more beneficial to yourself and your dog, but the professional is also building a bond and relationship with your dog. They know how your dog responds and how to manage them and your dog knows that they have trust and love. Switching too often (to who can fit you in) can be very stressful for your pet and could result in anxiety which later causes aggression. Often regular grooming aids Behavioural Improvement, it teaches patience, trust, endurance, balance and much more.
Let's talk about Time and Money Savings for Owners. Regular grooming is both time and cost effective to the owner as at home you’d have to do little to no extra grooming or de matting, save money by Preventative Health Care Reducing Veterinary Bills which let’s face it are way more than a professional dog grooming service. Dog groomers often face oh that’s expensive and joe blogs can do it cheaper, we are not a charity we are a business, and we are in this industry because we love and care for your animals and often joe blogs is probably not adequately qualified and will give you a poor job by cutting corners. Can you really put a price on your dog's health care professional? We health check, we notice things, we get pooped on peed on, scratched, bitten, witness awful matting or skin concerns, we will put ourselves through pain and discomfort to keep your dog happy during a session, we are trained professionals and should always continue personal development which is costly but necessary, we have overheads and family’s too so please don’t question pricing this job is mentally and physically demanding in fact recent studies show a dog groomer will only trade for up to 5yrs before changing career.
Tips for Choosing the Right Groomer use the link above & ask for a consultation visit to check out the groomer and the environment you want to ensure they are trying to create a relaxing environment even in a busy salon this is possible if done correctly or enrol in a puppy program from 16 weeks of age. YES, even when your breeder suggests longer or not until after 6 months this is FALSE INFORMATION!
Look at reviews/ qualification/ experience/ CPD and go with your gut it's usually right.
Animal welfare act. & Safety First always without question always be honest with your dog groomer if your dog is known for any aggression or has at any point shown any, be honest usually this will not phase the groomer but it’s for everyone’s safety, also if your dog is sick or sorry do not take them to a groomer until in full health.
Groomers along with Identifying and Treating Parasites your pet grooming professional can help with flea’s ticks etc… This alone is vital to your pet’s health. With regular grooming and health checks it aids in Early Detection of Lumps and Bumps that could or could not be anything sinister. Also help in Avoiding Ear Infections keeping ears clean and clear. Your pet groomer who is qualified can offer Expert Advice and Professional tips and tricks.
Scheduling Regular Appointments depending on your dog's breed coat and your lifestyle these can all come into play to grooming intervals as a rule full grooming every 6-12 weeks & maintenance groom/ bath/ tidy every 4-6 weeks.
