Before your dog grooming appointment
We recommend that visitors to our animal hospital be healthy and up to date on their immunizations. Our pet groomers groom dozens of dogs each week. Generally speaking, you ought to have documentation for kennel cough, canine influenza, and rabies.

Nail trimming

Hair trimming

It is essential to work with a groomer who’s knowledgeable in handling all breeds. An experienced groomer can make a first-time visit to the groomer less stressful for your pet.
After your dog grooming appointment
Your responsibilities as a dog parent will go on even after the dog grooming appointment. Dog owners should take good care of their dogs by regularly brushing, bathing, and trimming their nails. This will make grooming sessions for your dogs easier.
It can be a good idea to introduce some grooming habits as part of your puppy training. This is important as it will help your dog feel more relaxed and comfortable when it comes to grooming.
