Clip for length and then a smooth and safe diamond dremel to smooth and round the nail
With or without a bath. Includes ear cleaning and plucking, nail trim and diamond dremeling and shaving out pads where necessary. Full brush out or de-shed, whichever your dog’s coat requires. Rates based on size of dog and services requested
Bath, dry and brush out. Nail trim and diamond dremeling as well as shaving out paw pads. Ear cleaning and plucking. Sanitary trim and neatening up face and feet. Prices are dependent on the size of your dog, the condition of her coat, and services requested (trimming tail or belly fringe, ears, etc)
Bath, dry and brush out. Ear cleaning and plucking and external anal gland expression if necessary. Nail trim and diamond dremeling. Full haircut, including clearing out the pads and sanitary trim. Rates are dependent on the size of your dog and the condition of her coat. Matted dogs will incur an extra fee, as shave downs take a long time to do safely and take a toll on my blades.
While I will always go slow and allow your dog to set the pace, dogs who are particularly nervous about the grooming experience can benefit from spending time in the salon before it’s their turn in the tub. Your dog will come in and acclimate to the sounds and smells of the salon without the stress of handling. They will eat treats, explore the building, and lounge on a comfy bed. This is a drop off service, you do not have to stay! $25 for 4 hours, please contact me to set up an appropriate time, as I sometimes have dogs in the salon who need to be the only pup in the room.
I am always happy to talk to you about how to properly maintain your dog’s coat during your appointment. For a more thorough, hands on lesson, we can set up a half hour private meeting to go through brushing techniques, safe nail trimming and minor mat removal so you can keep your dog looking tip-top between appointments!
Does your dog dig people but isn’t wild about other pooches? I always try to leave a buffer for pups that don’t care for their own kind but can’t control for late pick ups or early drop offs. If you want a guaranteed clear room, solo grooms are available on a limited basis and for an additional $50 fee
In home training: Private lessons are $90 per hour. Please allow an hour and a half for our first visit, as I will be spending some extra time to get to know you and your dog and take a history. Subsequent visits are closer to an hour in length
