FAQs
frequently asked question about

Yes, and we work with what the dog can manage on the day rather than forcing a full groom. If something cannot be done comfortably, you will be told honestly.
Everything from shih tzus and cockapoos to German shepherds and huskies. Wiry coats can be hand-stripped and double coats can be de-shedded.
No. A bath, brush out and blow dry, or a face, feet and tidy trim, are both options if a full groom is not what your dog needs.
We are on Vincia Row, Gravesend DA12 1NA. Open 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturday, and closed on Sunday.
