Services available• Specialist care for elderly, anxious/nervous and challenging dogs Click here for a full list of prices A complete grooming service consists of:A full discussion with you about your pet. Assessing the coat condition and your dog's requirements. I always have the dog's best interest at heart and will always put your dogs comfort first. If your dog is matted then the matt's will have to be removed, I do not de-mat heavily matted dogs as it is too painful for them. A complete groom out looking for foreign bodies, lumps or injuries. Removing the dead undercoat. A clip or scissor to owners specification if possible. Bring in a photo of your preferred look if you like. PLEASE NOTE all matt's will be cut or clipped off. This is the kindest way as de-matting can be uncomfortable and cause upset to the dog. If you do not want your dog to have its matt's removed please ensure your dog is not matted when it arrives. A quality shampoo and canine shower. Washing every part of the dog including those horrid smelly areas! A facial cleanse to remove those nasty smells and eye build-ups and a therapeutic massage to relax tense muscles. A top quality professional canine shampoo designed for different types of hair and skin conditions suited to your dog will be used and I guarantee all the water is fresh and not recycled. There is a strong emphasis on using natural scented shampoo to prevent any reaction afterwards. This type of shampoo costs more than the basic ones but I feel it is worth it. I can use your own veterinary prescribed shampoo if necessary. A fresh & clean warm towel is used on each dog to towel of excess water before blow drying. Blow dry (I do not use a heated cabinet). Rest assured knowing your dog is blow dried with professional grooming driers and is supervised at all times. Ear cleaning. Removing excess ear wax, any parasites present and deodorizing the ear, also plucked if required. Nails will be cut free of charge when having a complete groom. This is providing the dog will allow me to. Some dogs get very distressed at this, if so, we will not continue. Nail trims for pooches not needing a pamper are also available.
A cologne spray to finish (providing dog has no skin problems) and a FREE bow or bandana, and at special times a photo. The final step is to give your pampered pooch a treat to say well done! If your dog has a digestive problem you can bring it's own treats for me to give if you wish. Upon collection you will be informed about anything we have come across or found. Nicki wants to make sure that each owner leaves the salon feeling 100% satisfied with the outcome of their pooches pampering and aims to keep the owner educated and fully informed about their dogs' requirements by providing them with useful advice including how to groom their dog. You will be asked if you are happy with your pooches pampered look. I encourage feed back as I want you to go away happy having made your next appointment. The studio offers an elite service by only having one dog in at a time. Your dog will not have to be dropped off and left all day but will need to be picked up within a required time scale (usually 1 1/2 - 2 hours or longer depending on breed). Prompt drop off's and pick ups are essential to enable a reliable service and your cooperation is appreciated. Easy off road parking. Why not leave your car and walk onto the prom or into town whilst your pooch is being groomed (no charge for this). Elderly, anxious/nervous and challenging dogs are a speciality handled by Nicki who understands and has the time to spend on each individual dog reading their body language. If your dog has a particular problem please don't hesitate to contact Nicki for further information. For problem dogs more time will be needed so the grooming charge will be slightly higher.
