What As the Fur Flies - North says

- Calm, low-stress setting
This helps keep the salons calm and quiet for our four legged guests all day long!
- Poodle cuts
Curly coats, such as doodles, Poodles, and Bichons, start higher due to the increased amount of time and product spent on grooming these coats.
- Pickup
We will provide you with an update when your pet has 30 minutes of their appointment left, and we respectfully request prompt pickup within 45 minutes of the completed groom.

Good to know
As the Fur Flies grooms all breeds, ages and personalities, with a Fear Free certified team. Every dog bath and groom includes ear cleaning, teeth brushing and a nail trim and file.
Online booking gives a starting point; the groomer confirms the price at drop-off after looking at coat condition, the haircut asked for and behavior. Curly coats such as doodles, poodles and bichons start higher. Sales tax is added.
Puppies can start after their second round of vaccines, ideally with three or four introduction visits before five months. A current rabies certificate with its expiration date is required; the tag alone is not enough.
The salon sends an update when about 30 minutes are left and asks for pickup within 45 minutes of the finished groom.
The North salon has a cat suite in its own quiet room, away from the dogs, and a certified feline master groomer. Cats drop off at 8 am for a noon pickup or at noon for a 3 pm pickup.
