Good to know
Dogs 16 weeks and older need a rabies vaccine; puppies under 16 weeks need at least two rounds of puppy starter vaccines, and any vaccine must be given at least 24 hours before the grooming session.
Every visit includes their 7-Point Pet Care Check, and a VIP option with reduced kennel time is offered for dogs prone to anxiety and flat-faced breeds such as French Bulldogs, English Bulldogs, Pugs and Boxers.
After an appointment is booked, they send a questionnaire asking about any special needs or sensitivities.
