Show Grooming |
| Show grooming requires a consultation, in addition to the normal grooming activities. Fees vary depending on the situation, and start at $100.00. Please call about your requirements. |
Long-haired breeds:Long-haired dogs should have their coats wrapped and changed every week. Please arrange a consultation for these special services. Hard-coated breeds:Special care for hard-coated dogs is provided by hand-stripping the coat to keep it healthy. Once hand-stripped, it requires less maintenance. Bathing may be done less frequently, usually only four to six times a year. For your dog's comfort, please wash it (or make arrangements for us to wash it) two days before your appointment. The hair comes out more easily. If we shampoo the dog on the day of the appointment, the pores will be more open after the stripping, and cause itching. Aftercare:Use Gold-bond or baby powder on sensitive or pink areas daily for four days. Keep the dog out of the sun for a week to avoid sunburn. |
