BATH AND TIDY*** MAINTENANCE VISITS and PUPPY INTRO GROOMING

Bath and tidies are the solution to preventing matting, overgrown nails and reduced sanitation between full grooms. 

Includes: bath, blow-dry, brush and comb, ear cleaning, nail trimming, pad clearing, rounding foot bottoms, sanitary trim, clearing around eyes and brow (PRICE IS NOT APPLICABLE FOR DOUBLE COATED BREEDS):

COST: 70% OF FULL BODY GROOM FEES (see above) 

***RECOMMENDED FOR ALL YOUNG PUPPIES BEING INTRODUCED TO GROOMING!!!

PUPPY PRACTICE VISITS

Young pups require desensitization to grooming that is hard to accomplish at home and outside of a safe and experienced professional environment. Learning windows for dogs, specifically to comfort exposure, start to close as early as 14 weeks.  We strongly recommend our youngest visitors have frequent visits for training/handling/practice after their first tidy. 

 

Includes: 2-4 hour social play to learn how to relate to dogs (age dependent), brushing/combing, table practice, blow drier desensitization and that's it!  Ideally, weekly visits for a short period of time is a wonderful investment to future comfort and safety for grooming! Unvaccinated pups have a shorter stay and are not directly exposed to other dogs. 

COST: $60 plus hst

 

SHEDDING BREEDS

Includes: bath, blow-dry, de-shed treatment, brushing and comb, ear cleaning, nail trimming, varying amounts of trimming (depending on breed and requirements) *Exceptions will always apply and prices assume a well maintained coat,  but this offers a general guideline:

Small breeds (eg: Jack Russell, French Bulldog etc.): approximately $65

Medium breeds (eg: Corgi, English Bulldog etc.): approximately $85 (hand scissoring additional, if applicable)

Large breeds smooth coats (eg: Labrador Retriever etc.): $110+

Large breeds longer coats (eg: Golden Retriever): $180+

XLarge Double Coated coats (eg: Samoyed): $250+

*PLEASE NOTE!!!! Every dog has individual needs; some have thicker or thinner coats, matted or tight coats and some dogs require specialized handling support to ensure the experience is safe if grooming isn't comfortable for them. These needs can impact listed prices.

ADD ON SERVICES

TEETH BRUSHING: $10 (not recommended unless you're looking after dental care regularly at home because it's a waste of your money; brushing will not remove established tartar but only remove the last 24-48 hours of plaque which leads to tartar)

SPECIALTY SHAMPOO: $5 for small-medium sized dogs, $10 for medium-larger sized dogs

 

MEDICATED BATH FROM VET: $10-$20 depending on duration need of the bath

NAIL FILING: $10 (nail cutting is included in all grooms however filing smooths any rough edges and rounds nails a little shorter than cutting alone - NOT necessary and not all dogs can handle the vibration)
