Dog Grooming Services

When you and your dog first arrive at Groomingtails, I’ll take a few moments to get acquainted with your furry friend and discuss any medical concerns, such as sensitivities, joint issues, or any lumps and bumps. We’ll also chat about your expectations for your dog’s haircut, covering coat type, different lengths, and styles. Pricing is based on coat type, condition, size, and temperament.

Every dog enjoys a soothing hydrobath using organic shampoos tailored to their needs, from sensitive skin to extra dirty coats. Each dog grooming session is topped off with a spritz of luxurious doggie perfume. Don’t forget to explore our spa packages for an extra special treat for your dog!

Every full groom includes a relaxing hydrobath, thorough drying, and care for hygiene areas, pads, and nails (if your dog is comfortable with it). We also clean their ears and perform a health check to ensure your dog leaves looking and feeling their best. Pricing provided after consultation.

Puppy Introduction

The first six months are a crucial time for your new pup’s learning and development, making it the perfect age to introduce them to the dog grooming process.

Starting at 14 weeks old, we’ll gently guide your puppy through their grooming journey. Our introductory sessions include a bath, drying (using one of three dryers, beginning with the slowest and quietest), and care for their pads, hygiene areas, eyes, ears, and nails. We understand this can be overwhelming for a young pup, so we always go at their pace. Sometimes, not everything will be completed in the first session—it all depends on your pup’s comfort level. Puppy grooms are scheduled once a month from 14 weeks until they’re 6-7 months old and ready for their grown-up haircut, as their coat transitions to an adult coat.

Each session last for 1-hour.

The big de-shed

Short-haired dogs like Dachshunds, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Labradors, and Pugs benefit greatly from regular de-shedding. This process helps remove excess dead hair from their undercoats, keeping their skin and coats healthy while also reducing the amount of hair on your furniture.

For long-haired and double-coated breeds such as Pomeranians, Border Collies, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Huskies, and Newfoundlands, de-shedding is essential. These breeds have two coats, and without regular grooming, the old coat can become compacted underneath as the new one grows. In addition to brushing, a light trim with scissors underneath can help maintain a well-groomed and healthy coat.

Clipping & Styling

All coat types, whether wool, long, silky, wire, or coarse, can be expertly clipped and styled to suit your pet’s specific needs. Wool coats, in particular, require a bit more attention and should be brushed daily at home, with professional grooming every 4 to 7 weeks to prevent matting.

Nail trimming is included with every full groom, but if you notice your pet’s nails getting long between appointments, just let me know! I’ll happily book you in for a complimentary nail trim. This offer is exclusively available for our valued existing customers.

Half way through

For higher-maintenance coats like those of poodles and poodle crosses, a halfway-through bath and tidy can be a great option to help keep their coats in top condition, especially when paired with daily brushing at home.

This service includes a hydrobath, drying, brushing, and a tidy-up around the feet, face, and bum. Please note that this groom doesn’t include any clipping or dematting, but it’s perfect for keeping your pet looking fresh between full grooming sessions.

Bath & Dry

A quick hydrobath and dry is available to freshen up your dog. This service includes only a bath and drying—no clipping, styling, or dematting is included.
