Full groom near Willow Ridge.
Bath, blow-dry, brush and a finish agreed around their coat and comfort. The works, from muddy to fluffy.
For pets from Willow Ridge.
Full grooms for big Willow Ridge dogs.
A full groom is everything in one visit. We start by feeling the coat and chatting through the finish you’d like, then it’s a warm bubble bath, a gentle blow-dry, a thorough brush-out and the trim you agreed.
We tidy the face, feet and hygiene areas, trim nails and clean ears if you’d like, and finish with a last fluff. If the coat has knots, we’ll tell you honestly what’s kinder to brush out and what’s kinder to clip.
Not sure what finish to choose? Bring a photo of a look you like, or tell us how much brushing you can manage at home, and we’ll suggest something that suits.
How it goes
Bubble by bubble.
Hello & coat check
We feel the coat, check for knots and agree the finish.
Bubble bath
Warm water and a gentle shampoo suited to their coat.
Towel & blow-dry
At a speed and warmth they’re comfortable with.
Brush & trim
Brushed out, then the trim you agreed.
Fluffy out
A final fluff and a note on how it went.
Every coat
Planned around their coat.
Curly coats
Fully dried straight, then scissored or clipped to the length you’d like.
Double coats
A deep wash and a thorough de-shed. We don’t shave double coats unless your vet advises it.
Silky coats
Gently de-tangled, with a neat tidy around the eyes, ears and feet.
Short coats
A good bath, a rubber-brush de-shed, nails and ears. Quick and fresh.
About knots and mats.
A few knots brush out with patience. Tight mats close to the skin are a different story, and brushing them out can hurt. If we find mats, we’ll call you, explain what we see and agree the kindest way forward before we carry on.
Regular brushing at home and a groom every few weeks keeps most coats knot-free. Ask us and we’ll suggest a routine that suits their coat.
Bring along
- A photo of a finish you like
- Their lead and collar or harness
- Any shampoo your vet recommended
- Notes on sensitive spots
