Services
------------------------------

Brushing

Thoroughly brushing and/or deshedding the coat all over removes mats, loose hair and stimulate natural oil production. This will be followed by a comb through to ensure all tangles are removed.

Nail Trim

Your dog's nails should just touch the ground when she walks. If her nails are clicking on the floor or getting snagged in the carpet, it's time for a pedicure. I will Cut the nails as short as possible to assist traction when walking and keep them from overgrowth which can cause them to break.

Ear Plucking and Cleaning

Removing any hair growing inside the canal followed by a cleanser to increase air circulation, dissolve wax buildup and control odour. Avoid those nasty ear infections with regular maintenance.

Packages

Bath and Brush
............................

First, your pets coat will be fully brushed out, removing the loose hairs and allowing the shampoo to provide the best result during the bath. The ears are cleaned and the nails are trimmed. Your pet is bathed in a high quality, all natural “no tear” shampoo. Should you wish, pet conditioner is applied at no additional cost. Your pet is towel dried, then air dried and finally “fluff” dried by hand. The coat is then brushed out again to the finished result.

Our standard pet cologne is applied at no additional cost
And finally, to complete the look, special bandana for your dog is fitted to your finished pet, again at no additional cost.

Tidy Up
................

I know that sometimes your pet isn’t ready for a full groom yet, but their not looking their best anymore either and a bath alone isn’t going to work. So, I created another option for your pet.

Includes everything in the Bath and Brush Package plus these fun extras!

First, your pet receives a full grooming prep. This includes shaving the hairs from the pads of the feet, Clipping the excess hair from the armpit area, Clipping the hair from the stomach and the tush area too. I will also trim the feet, rounding or shaping them as per the breed specifications
We’ll lightly trim face and any stray fuzziness on the body to create a clean appearance.

Full Service
......................

First, your pet receives a full grooming prep. This includes shaving the hair from the pads of their feet. Clipping the excess hair from the armpit, the tummy and the tush areas. This is also known as a sanitary trim. Then I will clean the ears, removing any excess hair from the ear canal. Next we will clip the nails. We’ll bathe your pet in our all natural, no tears, and hypoallergenic shampoo. A dermasilk conditioning treatment is also applied at no additional charge during the bathing process. Then your pet is hand dried and fluff dried.
After that we’ll begin the grooming. Your pet is groomed to the pattern for his/her breed by using special clipping equipment. If you prefer a more personalised haircut we can work out something you like. To complete the groom, your pets coat is hand scissored to a symmetrical and attractive finish.
And finally, to complete the look, special bandana for your dog is fitted to your finished pet, again at no additional cost.
Our standard cologne is applied to finish the experience for your pet.

For everyone out there with a brand new puppy it is important to get them used to grooming at a young age.

Extras
------------------------

Flea Bath:

If your dog has fleas, a flea treatment is needed. An all natural flea shampoo will sit on the coat for 15 minutes while I use a flea comb to remove all fleas and ticks. Once again, this is an emergency case that must get treated right away. Fleas can lead to allergies, hot spots and Lyme disease.

$15.00 extra

Excessive Undercoat Removal:

Dogs that are shedding profusely will receive a deshedding treatment. This would include 30 minutes of brushing with an undercoat rake, a bath with a special deshedding shampoo, a high velocity dryer to loosen dead undercoat and a final brushing to remove any excess shedding fur. Heavy shedding can be controlled if the dog is brushed regularly, especially during the summer.

$15.00 extra
