Short and smooth
A rubber brush, a deep shampoo and a long rinse remove dead hair and leave labradors, whippets and staffies with a visible shine.
Services
Every coat gets a plan of its own.
Short-haired labs, curly poodles, fluffy ragdolls: each needs something a little different. Here is how we handle the main coat families.
Six coats, six approaches
Your groomer picks tools and timing to suit the coat, not the other way round.
Curly and woolly
Poodles and doodles get a thorough comb-out and a scissored finish that stays neat for six to eight weeks.
Double-coated
Huskies, shepherds and retrievers receive a de-shedding bath and a patient blow-out that frees the undercoat without shaving it.
Wiry and terrier
Hand-stripping or careful clipping keeps the texture crisp and the colour rich on schnauzers and terriers.
Long and silky
Spaniels, shih tzus and Maltese are brushed section by section, so tangles are lifted rather than cut.
Cats of every length
A calm bath, a brush-out and a nail trim in a quiet room, with a lion cut for coats that mat despite regular combing.
How often to come back
- 01
Every four weeks
Poodles, doodles and any dog with a coat that grows quickly or tangles at the legs and ears.
- 02
Every six to eight weeks
Most medium-length coats, as well as dogs who like to roll in things on the weekend walk.
- 03
Seasonal resets
Double-coated breeds benefit from a de-shedding visit in autumn and spring, when they blow their undercoat.
Questions about services
Do you shave double-coated dogs?
Rarely. Shaving can damage how the coat regrows and removes natural protection from heat and sun. We prefer de-shedding unless a vet recommends a clip.
Do you groom puppies?
Yes, from twelve weeks and once their vaccines are complete. A short introductory appointment with a gentle wash teaches a puppy that the salon is a happy place.
Can you handle severely matted coats?
We will try, with frequent breaks. If the mats are tight to the skin, the kindest option is a short clip, and your groomer will talk it through before starting.
Not sure which service fits?
Send a photo of your pet's coat and we will suggest a package and how long to book.
