Grooming

Grooming is an important part of pet care. Depending on the breed, age and health of your pet, grooming may even need to be a part of you and your pet’s daily routine. Many breeds require less grooming than this, but regular grooming always helps to keep your pet healthy and comfortable. Some breeds don’t shed their hair effectively (eg. Poodles) and require grooming by a professional every 6-8 weeks. Long haired cats can particularly benefit from regular grooming as it helps prevent the formation of knots on the skin and hairballs in the stomach.

Our Professional Grooming Services

We offer medically advised grooming services for cats and dogs. These procedures are typically performed under sedation to ensure comfort and safety.

Additionally, if you’re in need of assistance to bath your pet. Speak to our team to organise a Veterinary Nurse who can assist in bathing your dog in our DIY dog wash or if appropriate, in our treatment area in our hospital.

Please call to discuss your pets grooming requirements to see where we can help!

Grooming at Home

We encourage you to also engage in regular grooming with your pet at home. There are numerous benefits of regular grooming, for example:

  • Decreased chance of skin problems
  • Optimal skin cleanliness and comfort for you and your pet
  • Improved monitoring of health issues like cuts, heat, swelling, fleas, lameness or changes in temperament.
  • Enhanced behavioural routines with obedient submission during grooming periods
  • Closer bonding with your pet through regular contact
