GROOMING:
2008 Fees
(subject to change)
BATH WITH *BASICS
(Some Clips and all shave-downs are extra. Pricing varies depending on mats and time*)
For Mixes =breed coat type and/or size most closely resembling the following...
*BASICS= Brush out w/ 20 minutes of undercoat/mat removal; Nails; Ears; Feet; Groin-Anal area ‘clean-up;' Brush out; light Trim...
*FEE SCHEDULE (+8¼% NYS SalesTax...sorry!)
Fees are based on time and work for the 'average' dog of that breed... IF your dog is much larger than the average for that breed,"unruly;" or has not been groomed in the past season, additional time may be necessary to complete the grooming process,. There may be an additional fee at the rate of $18/ 20 minutes for additional undercoat and/or dematting beyond the seasonal "norm."
Regular grooming appointments; and brushing your dog or cat in-between appointments will keep these fees off your bill.
Regular appointments are less stressful for your pet too. As they become accustomed to being groomed, they learn to like it, and know what to expect, and many are better "behaved," as they learn to stand on the table for brushing and combing, or having their nails trimmed. Additionally it takes less time, which may also be less stress for your best friend...
*rates are effective 1/08 but are subject to change with the increase in electricity rates and oil for heating and hot water... keeping your scheduled 8-week appointments will keep any increase off your bill, at least for quite a while!
