The inspiration for The Dirty Dawg blossomed with the arrival of our new family member, a Parsons Jack Russell named Reginald. His adventurous spirit and love for all things dirty transformed him into ‘The Dirty Dawg’, reminding us to embrace life’s messiness and joy.

TESTIMONIAL
Cavapoo – We took our six month old puppy for his first proper big boy groom and Laura worked her magic. He came out looking absolutely gorgeous and it was quite a transformation. Laura asked us lots of important questions and she took her time to make sure our pup was at ease. She doesn’t rush and the dogs in her care are her top priority. So pleased we stumbled across Dirty Dog Grooming Salon. We will return. Thank you

Hand stripping
This is a specialist technique which is generally used on certain coat types such as wire haired breeds like Border Terriers, Wire Haired Dachshund etc. This service takes between 3-6 hours and includes hand stripping the coat to breed standard, nail cut and file, and ear cleanse. We recommend not washing a dog after hand stripping, so we therefore offer a complimentary bath and blow dry 2 weeks after the hand-stripping process. An exact price will be given at the pre-treatment consultation, as factors such as time since last hand-strip and condition of the coat will determine time needed to complete this treatment.

When should my puppy come in for its first groom?
It’s important to have your puppy groomed as soon as possible so they can get used to and learn to love the grooming experience. We recommend they come in around 12 weeks old (two weeks after their last set of vaccinations). During the appointment we will introduce them to the sounds and smells of the grooming salon, you may also bring some tasty treats or a toy that they love, this will help settle your puppy. At the end of the first appointment, we will suggest a grooming regime to help you maintain your desired length or style.
