Good to know
Pretty Paws has groomed dogs in Aurora since 2012, with staff trained in dog grooming and animal handling and a focus on anxiety-free, gentle grooming. Big or small, they groom them all.
A bath with no trim usually takes one and a half to two and a half hours; large or very hairy dogs take two hours or more, and matting adds time. Your groomer will call when your dog is nearly or fully finished.
If your veterinarian has prescribed a shampoo, bring it and they will use it; products that need contact time carry an added fee for the bather's time.
If something needs tweaking after pick-up, call within 48 hours and they will arrange a time to fix it.

Slicker brushes

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.
