To ensure your new puppy is introduced to a lifetime of grooming in a positive and pleasurable way, the following care package is available for an one off upfront fee of £50 which offers great value.
The puppy package includes:
Please note that depending how your puppy is on the day and how they take to grooming, your appointment may take a longer time period than an adult dog. The right is reserved to stop the groom and re-book if your puppy is showing signs of not tolerating the process due to tiredness, teething or being unduly hypo-active.
Nails - standalone service £8-£10 (depending on size of dog)
Fleas - Additional salon cleaning time/spray treatment costs £20
Overgrown coats (every one month overdue normal groom cycle) +£5-£10 per each month overdue normal cycle for additional time
De Matt - Equipment wear & tear on blades / scissors due to dirty coats and matts £30 plus the below fees
De Matt - Additional specialist groom time to remove safely £10 per every additional 15 mins over 2.5hrs groom
If you are unable to make an pre-booked appointment, please give 48 hours notice or as soon as you are aware it will be difficult to attend otherwise 50% of the groom price may be invoiced and there may be a waiting period to re-book.
Christmas appointments:
Due to the high demand for grooming during December, a non refundable booking fee of 75% of the groom cost is payable at the time of booking for all appointments made from 1st to the 24th December r. This is because the time is reserved specifically for yourself and your dog and cannot easily be re booked at short notice as people are busy with other Christmas commitments or are away. Payment is by BACS transfer or Card and your appointment will be confirmed by text once payment is received.
Molly has visited Sootypaws for a groom and hand strip a few times now and I am delighted Louise is able to turn this typical "wired" coconut of a border terrier into a groomed sweetly smelling dog and it must require all of Louise 's patience and calm to finish the job so well.
