full grooming

The complete head-to-tail makeover

Bath, breed-style haircut, brush-out, ear cleaning and nail trim in one calm session — your dog walks out looking sharp and feeling brand new.

what it entails

Two hours of pure pampering

Full grooming is our signature transformation. We start with a warm-water bath using coat-matched shampoo, then hand-dry and brush every inch. Next comes the breed-style cut — hand-scissored, shaped to your preference — followed by ear cleaning, nail trimming and a light finishing spritz.

Every full groom ends with a mini health check: skin, coat, ears, teeth and paws. If we spot anything worth a vet’s look, we’ll tell you at pickup.

what’s included

Everything in one session

Warm bath & hand dry

Coat-matched gentle shampoo, conditioner for long coats and a low-heat hand dry — never a hot cage dryer.

Breed-style haircut

Hand scissoring shaped to breed standard or your photos. Show cut or puppy cut — your call.

Brush-out & de-tangle

Full undercoat removal and mat release, done gently strand by strand. No painful pulling, ever.

Ears & nails

Gentle ear cleaning, precise nail clipping and paw-pad tidy for comfortable walks.

Mini health check

Skin, ears, teeth and paw review with honest notes on anything we think a vet should see.

Finishing touches

Light coat spritz, bow or bandana, a treat — and a report card with styling notes for next time.

good to know

Full grooming, answered

Most dogs thrive on a full groom every 4–8 weeks. Curly and long coats lean toward 4, short smooth coats toward 8 — we’ll recommend a rhythm after the first visit.

Absolutely — bring photos and we’ll match them as closely as your dog’s coat allows, or shape a custom cut that suits their face and lifestyle.

We release what we can without pain and humanely clip what we can’t. We’ll never rip mats out — and we’ll show you a 5-minute home routine to prevent them.

Full grooming is included in our Standard and Pro packages.
