Bathing and Coat Conditioning for Healthy Skin and Hair
A healthy coat begins with high-quality shampoo and proper bathing techniques. We use gentle, professional-grade shampoos that cleanse thoroughly without irritating your dog’s skin. Dogs with allergies, sensitivities, or chronic skin issues often benefit from our medicated and therapeutic shampoo options available upon request.
After the bath, we apply conditioning treatments to help moisturize the skin, strengthen coat fibers, reduce tangles, and leave your pet’s fur soft and shiny. This step is especially important for breeds with dense, curly, or long coats that require extra attention.

Specialized Haircuts and Styling for Small and Medium Dogs
With more than 40 years of grooming experience, including training from the prestigious New York School of Dog Grooming, we are highly skilled in a wide range of styling techniques. Every haircut is performed with precision, patience, and attention to detail.
Styling options include:
- Breed-standard cuts
- Customized owner-preferred styles
- Puppy cuts
- Creative clips
- Face, feet, and sanitary trims
Our goal is to create a style that suits your dog’s personality, coat type, and lifestyle while keeping them comfortable year round.
Nail Trimming, Ear Care, and Hygiene Services
Hygiene is a major part of our full-service dog grooming. Many small breeds are prone to ear buildup, nail overgrowth, and gland issues. We take care of these essential needs during every full grooming appointment so you do not have to worry about them between visits.
Included hygiene care:
- Nail trimming or grinding to a safe, comfortable length
- Ear cleaning to reduce odor and buildup
- Anal gland expression for dogs who require it
- Eye cleaning as needed
By integrating these treatments into our full grooming packages, we help prevent pain, discomfort, and long-term health issues for your pup.
Tooth Brushing to Support Oral Health
Dental care is an important part of your dog’s long-term health. Our tooth brushing add-on helps minimize plaque buildup, freshen breath, and promote cleaner teeth over time. While not a replacement for veterinary dental care, regular brushing at grooming appointments is an excellent way to maintain daily oral hygiene.
