Full groom

Ideal for dogs whose coats require regular clipping, scissoring and ongoing professional maintenance.

A full groom includes a bath, brush, blow dry, nail clip, ear clean and haircut. The finished style is discussed with you and considered alongside coat condition, lifestyle and what can be maintained comfortably.

Bath, brush and deshedding

Not every dog needs a haircut. A professional bath, brush and blow dry helps keep coats fresh and manageable while removing loose hair.

Deshedding treatments remove loose undercoat in a controlled way and are tailored to the individual coat.

Calm doesn’t mean rushed

One to one grooming keeps attention on the individual dog. Gentle handling, reassurance and breaks can be used when needed.

The goal is professional grooming while making the experience as positive and comfortable as reasonably possible.
