What Dirty Paws says
In their own words, from dirtypawsboise.com, read October 9, 2026.
- Senior pets
While she enjoys grooming every dog that comes in to see her, she has a special spot in her heart for seniors.
- Calm, low-stress setting
I'm passionate about creating a calm environment and positive experience so that the dogs develop a healthy relationship with the grooming process.
- How long a groom takes
Small dog grooming appointments can take anywhere from 2-4 hours.
Good to know
Professional grooming is by appointment only, seven days a week; the self-serve tubs next door are first come, first served.
Small dog grooms take 2 to 4 hours and large dogs 3 to 5 hours; you are notified when your dog is done.
The salon does not take new small dogs aged 13 or over, or new large dogs aged 11 or over, and suggests the self-serve tubs for older dogs.
In the Eastgate Shopping Center at Boise Ave and Apple, across from Timberline High School.

Between grooms
The basics for the weeks in between. Picked by PawsRx, not recommended by Dirty Paws.

Lick mats
Something to lick, stuck to the tub wall or the floor, keeps a lot of dogs still for a bath or a nail trim.

Non-slip rugs and runners
Hard floors are where older dogs slip. A runner along their usual route gives them grip.
