Good to know
Nail filing, ears, pad shaving, feet, sanitary trim and gland expression are included in every bath and groom; the only extras are the natural flea shampoo and matting fees.
Kristie has groomed in Sacramento for over 20 years and runs the shop with her son Brandon; she will be the only groomer you see. The small shop takes a few dogs a day, hand-dries every dog, and uses no cage dryers, back rooms or muzzles, so it does not groom aggressive dogs.
New clients come in for a meet and greet between 9 am and 2 pm, Tuesday to Saturday, for an exact price and a booking. The salon works only with dogs used to regular grooming and tolerant of other dogs; nervous dogs do best at a 2 pm appointment. It is usually booked about a week out, and two or more weeks for large doodles.
The salon's pages give its hours as Tuesday to Saturday, 9 am to 4 pm, by appointment only. Payment is cash or check only.

Between grooms
The basics for the weeks in between. Picked by PawsRx, not recommended by Wagging Tailz Pet Spa & Lounge.
Slicker brushes
Curly and doodle coats mat close to the skin. Groomers follow a slicker with a metal comb to check they reached the bottom.

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.
