Dog Grooming FAQ

Practical answers for Shellharbour City Centre pet owners

My dog gets anxious during grooming. What can I do?

Many Shellharbour City Centre groomers specialize in handling nervous pets. Start with short, positive visits where nothing stressful happens. Consider booking during quieter times and bringing familiar items from home. Some groomers offer special services for anxious dogs, including extra breaks, calming techniques, or even separate rooms away from other animals.

Are mobile grooming services available in our area?

Yes, many mobile groomers service Shellharbour City Centre and the broader Wollongong area. These fully-equipped grooming vans come to your home, which can be ideal for dogs that get stressed during car rides or in busy salon environments. Mobile services typically cost $10-30 more than in-salon grooming but offer the convenience of not having to transport your pet.

How should I maintain my dog's coat between grooming appointments?

Between professional grooming visits, maintain your dog's coat with regular brushing appropriate to their coat type (daily for long-haired breeds, 2-3 times weekly for medium coats, weekly for short coats). Check and clean ears weekly, brush teeth regularly, and keep an eye on nail length. Ask your Shellharbour City Centre groomer to recommend specific home-care products for your dog's particular needs.

Do I need to prepare my dog before their grooming appointment?

To get the most from your grooming appointment, brush your dog thoroughly a day or two before if possible (especially if they're matted). Take them for a walk to relieve themselves before arriving. If it's their first visit, bring vaccination records and inform the groomer about any health issues, sensitivities, or behavioral concerns your dog might have.
