What’s Included in Our Full Dog Grooming Service
Our full grooming service is designed to address both comfort and cleanliness while maintaining a gentle approach throughout the appointment.
Full Haircut Tailored to Your Dog
Each haircut is customized based on your dog’s breed, coat type, lifestyle, and your preferences. We prioritize clean lines, comfort, and easy maintenance while keeping your dog relaxed throughout the process.
Bath With TropiClean Shampoo and Conditioner
Every groom includes a bath using TropiClean shampoo, followed by conditioner for all dogs. These products help cleanse the coat while supporting healthy skin without harsh ingredients.
Blow Dry As Tolerated
Some dogs enjoy blow drying, while others need a slower approach. We dry coats gently and only to the level your dog tolerates, never forcing the process.
Ear Cleaning for Ongoing Hygiene
Clean ears help prevent irritation and odor. Ear cleaning is included as part of the grooming service to support overall ear health.
Nail Trim and Nail Dremeling
Long nails can cause discomfort and posture issues. We trim nails carefully and offer nail dremeling to smooth rough edges when your dog tolerates it.
Optional Grooming Services Available by Request
Some dogs benefit from additional grooming details that go beyond standard care. These services are available upon request and always performed with your dog’s comfort as the priority.
Anal Gland Expression
For dogs that require it, anal gland expression can be added to the grooming appointment when appropriate.
Light Color Services
We offer subtle, pet-safe color accents for areas like ears or tails, perfect for special occasions or seasonal fun.
Nail Painting
Nail painting is available for pet owners who enjoy adding a polished, playful touch to their dog’s look.
A Calm Grooming Experience From Start to Finish
Every part of our grooming process is designed to reduce stress. Fewer sounds, fewer smells, and fewer interruptions help dogs stay calm and cooperative. This approach is especially beneficial for puppies, senior dogs, and pets that may feel nervous in traditional grooming salons. By respecting each dog’s limits, we help create positive grooming experiences that build trust over time.
