Wash & Go includes:
  • ​ A bath in dog friendly shampoo and/or fox poo shampoo if required.
  •  Basic drying with our high velocity hair dryer.
  • Fragrant cologne to finish
Please note the dog will not be completely dried or brushed and therefor will not have any dead coat removed, will still be wet but not dripping so must continue to be dried at home. Because the coat is not fully dried at the salon, there may be a slight smell to the dog.

Bath & Tidy
If you feel your dog needs a wash and brush out in-between regular grooms, we offer a 'Bath & Tidy' where your dog will come out smelling fresh having had a wash, complete dry and a brush out. Also included is a trim around eyes and sanitary areas, clipping of underside of pads, ears cleaned and nails clipped if required with a fragrant cologne to finish. Some clients with doodle type dogs such as Cockerpoos or Labradoodles, find this service useful to keep on top of any matts that can form in-between scheduled regular grooms.

Puppy Intro
For puppies under 6 months of age, we offer a service called a 'Puppy Intro'. The earlier you can 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. Click here to see prices

The main aim is to ensure your puppy is happy and confident while being slowly introduced to all the equipment and noises he/she will come into contact with in the grooming salon to set them 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, 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 its 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 regular 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.
