Before you book

  • Give the breed, rough weight and age, and say when the last groom was.
  • Say if the coat is knotted or matted; it changes the time and the price.
  • Check whether nails, ears and a hygiene trim are part of the price.
  • Check the van can park outside and whether it needs your electricity.
  • Mention health issues, nerves or a history of biting so the groomer can plan the session.
