Full Grooms

Price varies by breed

A full groom is just that, verythingine session. A bath, dry, nail trim and styled to your preference whether that's to breed standard or to your own requirements.

 

Hand Stripping

Price varies by breed

After years showing terriers we have lots of experience in hand stripping.

This method is common in the Terrier and Gundog breeds and maintains the colour and texture of the coat ny removing coat from the root leaving room for new hair to grow through rather than clipping or cutting which just shortens the length of the coat. We do not usually bath hand strip areas straight after hand stripping as this technique leaves open pores once the hair has been removed. Bathing afterwards can sometimes cause an infection in the hair follicle.

 

Just a bath

Small to medium dogs £15

Larger dogs £25

We'll give your dog a good scrub is professional soothing shampoo and do our best to make sure even the most nervous dogs have a calm, relaxing experience and come out looking, feeling and smelling fresher than ever.

One to one Training

One to one training can help in many ways whether it is making dog ownership more fun and less stressful or opening doors to a world of activities and social situations that owning a well trained dog brings:

General training on specific problems such as recall, manners, lead pulling or energy management. Help focus dogs who are easily distracted. A consistent and reliable recall. Increasing the difficulty of work for dogs who have a basic understanding of obedience to build to a more advanced level. Improve confidence for nervous owners. Help with dogs and owners who need a little more time and tuition than a group class can offer.

If you are unsure where to begin, we hold free drop in sessions every Monday between 5pm and 7pm where you can call in without the need for an appointment and have a chat with one of our instructors. These sessions are helpful if you are new to dog ownership and are not sure where to begin, if you have specific issues that you would like to address that may not be covered in general training classes or if you are an experienced owner and would like to progress to a higher level. Also, if you have questions regarding problems around the home, in the park or anything else we will do our best to help and give as much advice as you need.
