Puppy Intro
For puppies/young dogs which are new to grooming, we offer a service called a 'Puppy Intro'. The earlier you start acclimatising your puppy to being groomed the better. Providing he/she has had their vaccinations (normally around 12 weeks), they can begin their grooming routine at the salon. 

The main aim is to ensure your puppy is happy and confident while being slowly introduced to all the equipment and noises he will come into contact with in the grooming salon to set him up for the future. 
This service includes:
  • A free consultation
  • A groomers health check, where we check each animal for signs of illness or injury and alert owners to any issues found such as lumps and bumps or muscular problems.
  • A bath in dog friendly shampoo and conditioner (Tropiclean), with a blueberry facial scrub which is 'tear free'.
  • Drying and brushing out
  • Pads of paws, hair by eyes and sanitary areas trimmed
  • Nails clipping
  • Fragrant cologne as a finishing touch

​Hand Stripping 
We do offer hand stripping for most breeds however do reserve the right to use our discretion. Many factors effect whether a dog can be hand stripped therefor we prefer to see the dog first to assess it's eligibility to be hand stripped before an appointment can be made. Please call for more information. 

Ears plucking/cleaning only . Some breeds such as Cockerpoos and Schnauzers grow hair in their ears which can block the air flow to the ear canal and cause bacteria to build up leading to ear infections. By gently plucking the hair from the ear canal and clearing away any wax debris, the ear will stay clean and healthy. This is done routinely as part of a full groom, however it can be requested as a service on its own in between full grooms. Click here to see prices.

Nail clipping/filing only
A dogs nails will continue to grow so unless walked regularly on surfaces such as concrete to naturally wear the nails down, nail clipping will be required. The service is included in a full groom, however can be provided as a service on its own in between full grooms. Clipping nails can leave a sharp edge to the claw, which if your dog is prone to jumping up, can scratch. If you would like the nails filed as well as clipping to minimise this, please request it at the time of booking. Click here to see prices.
