On the table

Bath, dry, snip.

One dog on the table at a time, so nobody is barking in their ear. Every dog is hand-dried with a towel and a low, quiet dryer. We never use cage dryers.

Nervous dog?
We go slow.

  1. 1

    Tell us on the booking form

    We book nervous dogs first thing, when the salon is quiet, with extra time built in.

  2. 2

    We stop if they have had enough

    If a dog is too stressed we finish what is safe and ring you. You pay for what we did.

  3. 3

    Try an intro visit

    A fifteen-minute visit to sniff about and meet us, with no grooming. No charge.
