Frequently Asked Questions
Do you Groom Cats? - Yes, we groom and offer full salon services for both cats and dogs. We will also do nail clipping for small companion animals.
How long does the grooming take? - Typically anywhere from 20 minutes to two hours. Times are based on the size of the pet, coat condition, hair length, etc. (very hairy and/or large dogs understandably take longer)
Is warm water used? - Yes, fresh and heated water.
What is the FURminator? - The FURminator is a tool which if used every 4-6weeks reduces shedding by 60%-80%. It removes the pet's undercoat(that is what sheds) and leaves the pet's coat looking normal, not like a shavedown. We do both dogs and cats. It is fabulous!
How often should my dog be groomed? - We recommend every 4 to 6 weeks.
But doesn't frequent bathing dry out the skin and coat? - We use very mild, hypoallergenic and medicated shampoos and conditioners that are safe to be used once a week. In fact, most veterinarians recommend dogs be washed at least once a week with a medicated shampoo if they have skin or coat problems.
Can I have my pet washed in my own shampoo? - We'll be happy to use any preferred pet-safe or veterinarian prescribed shampoo, as long as it is designed for and safe to use on pets.
