At the Dogs Body we provide a full grooming service to all our clients. This includes:

  • Brush out: A full brush including stripping out the undercoat and removing matts and tangles.

  • Hydrobath: A shampoo, condition (if requested) and rinse in our high-pressure hydro bath. The bath gets right down to the skin and removes any loose hair, dandruff and debris that might be in the coat.

  • Blow Dry: A good blow dry. This removes any hair left after brushing and bathing and dries the coat.

  • Final Trim: This is done by hand with scissors to the standard that is required by the owner.

And don’t forget the finishing touches! All our dogs get a spray of dog cologne and a bandana tied around their neck.

 

We also offer a 7-point animal grooming check, which involves us thoroughly going over your pet and checking:

  1. Eyes: If there is any discharge, swelling, sores or objects in the animal’s eyes.

  2. Ears: We check for any sticky wax residue, objects in the ears, redness or swelling.

  3. Nails: We check that the nails are trimmed, if there is any broken or damaged nails or if there is any objects such as barley grass between the toes.

  4. Skin/Coat: we check for any hot spots, flaky skin, dandruff, sores, rashes and parasites.

  5. Teeth/Breath: We check for any tartar, broken teeth, bad breath or sores.

  6. Weight: we advise the owner if their dog is looking a bit overweight / underweight and offer some suggestions on diet and exercise.

  7. Anal Gland: we check the anal glands and express them if necessary.




Please note that we no longer do cat grooming. We feel cats are too unpredictable to groom easily, and it is not worth risking our entire business, if Amy gets bitten and we have to close, for one cat. If your cat needs to be groomed, call your vet clinic and they can groom with the safety of sedation.
