Health & safety guidelines

Before your appointment…

  • Please make sure all your dog’s vaccinations are current.

  • If you want us to skip any step of the traditional groom, just let us know.

  • If you are bringing your puppy to us, they should have received their second round of vaccinations, usually at about 12 weeks.

  • Please make us aware of any skin problems (moles, skin tags, lumps, sore spots) or medical issues your dog has prior to us beginning the groom. We’ll keep a careful eye on the area of concern and better monitor their behavior if we know what to look out for.

  • Please let us know if your dog is fearful of heights or has vertigo, we can groom them on a very low table.

  • Let us know if your dog has ever been aggressive with a prior groomer and the circumstances. We can work to make your dog calmer and more willing to be groomed.

  • We occasionally give small treats to dogs to reinforce good behavior. If this isn’t agreeable to you, let us know.

  • Please have your dog do his/her business before coming to the salon. Thank you!
