Dog Grooming: Why is it necessary? 

When grooming your dogs, they receive more than just a haircut from us. The groom helps prevent their coats from matting, which keeps them in good condition. It aids the health checking process, whilst reducing unpleasant odours and skin complaints. By bringing your dogs to us regularly, they can build a good relationship with us and enjoy the process. They leave us with a well-maintained coat, in a style that suits you.
