Price list
(Guide Only)

Flea Treatment & Eradication
This service is carried out with Full Grooms for an additional
£10. Your dog will be washed with an insecticidal shampoo which is left on the coat for a period of time, during this time the coat is combed through to aid removal of insects, then once the groom is completed, your dog will be treated with a dose of Frontline.
(This process can remove up to 95% of insects – depending on how much of the coat is removed, however we cannot guarantee the animal being completely ‘Flea’ free).
Puppy Grooms
Puppy’s up to 9 months of age are given a discount of £6 off the price of a Full Groom due to their size & requirements; this service is aimed at introducing your puppy to the grooming environment and noises etc.
Bath & Blow Dry/Dry Cut Only
Small Breeds £15
Medium Breeds £20
Large Breeds £25
Giant Breeds £30
Brush Outs
(minimum of 1 hour appointments)
£10 per hour
Brush Outs are aimed at breeds with long or thick coats which are prone to matting. The session is purely brushing/combing through the coat to keep the coat from matting and to remove any knots that may be forming.
(This is not matt removal, and coats where more than approximately 15% or more is severely matted will require extensive work. For larger breeds such as a Labradoodle may require more than 1 hour to thoroughly brush out).
Nail Clipping, Ear Plucking/Cleaning & Anal Glands
These services are all charged at £5 each if carried out on their own or with a Bath & Blow Dry/Dry Cut. They are however included free within a Full Groom.
Excess Matt
Removal
£10 per hour
Minor matt removal is included in the basic grooming price, excess matting (where more than approximately 15% of the coat is severely matted) is charged extra as above. We are unable to remove mats from heavily matted coats
(where approximately 50% or more of the coat is matted) due to the welfare of the dog. If your dog requires a ‘Complete Clip Off’ we will need to obtain your consent.
