Grooming FAQ

  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET MY DOG'S NAILS TRIMMED?

    We recommend every 2 to 4 weeks. Long toenails prevent the dog from walking on its paw pads, which causes pain and a breakdown of the bones in the foot.

  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET MY DOG GROOMED?

    This varies depending on the coat type, but long-haired or double-coated dogs should typically be groomed every 4 to 8 weeks to maintain a healthy mat-free coat.

  • HOW DO I PREVENT MATTING?

    Regular grooming and daily brushing are key, especially if you want to keep your dog in a long coat. Feel free to ask our groomer for advice on brushing techniques and equipment best for your dog.

  • HOW LONG DOES A GROOM USUALLY TAKE?

    Depending on the services requested and the groomer's workload, your dog's spa day could take anywhere from a few hours to the whole day.

    Extra time may be needed for long/ thick coats or dogs with special needs.

  • DOES MY DOG NEED VACCINATIONS BEFORE GROOMING?

    Yes, we ask that all grooming, daycare, and boarding clients supply proof of current Rabies, Distemper, Leptospirosis, Bordetella, and Canine Influenza.

  • HOW OLD DOES MY PUPPY NEED TO BE TO GET GROOMED?

    Your puppy must have completed its full series of puppy shots, including Rabies. Many breeds require regular grooming over their lifetime, so the sooner you get them started, the more comfortable they will be with the process.
