Good to know
Scenthound Melrose is a dog hygiene and basic grooming shop: the core visit is a bath, ear cleaning, nail trim and teeth brushing, and blow-drying, haircuts and treatments are added only as needed.
They do not do breed-standard styling; haircuts are a one-length allover trim. They groom dogs only, no cats.
Appointments are recommended, and walk-ins are taken when there is an opening. Owners do not stay to watch during the service, and if a dog becomes too stressed the service is paused or stopped.
A monthly membership is available, covering the Basic Hygiene visit and a wellness check, with no long-term contract.
The shop is in the Melrose Apartments shopping plaza on 8th Avenue South, near Fenwick's 300.

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.
