Grooming Prices

At Groom Dog City, every dog is different, and so is every groom. Our prices reflect the breed, coat type, size and time involved in giving your dog the care and attention they deserve.

All prices shown are starting prices and include VAT. They assume a regular grooming schedule and a coat in good condition. Additional charges may apply for heavily matted coats, challenging behaviour, unusual coat requirements or particularly time-consuming styles. Your groomer will discuss any additional costs with you.

Which groom is right for your dog?

Bath & Brush / FFB (Face, Feet & Bottom)

A refreshing bath, blow-dry, thorough brush-out and essential tidy-up where appropriate. Ideal for dogs who don’t require a full haircut, including many short-haired and double-coated breeds.

Shave-down

A practical, shorter haircut, generally under 13mm, with the body and legs clipped to a similar length. The head and tail are finished to suit your dog’s breed and your preferences.

Scissor Cut / Styled Groom

For dogs requiring a more tailored finish, with additional scissoring, shaping and styling. This includes longer styles, breed-specific trims and more intricate finishes. These appointments require additional time and skill.

Hand-stripping

A specialist grooming technique that removes dead coat by hand to maintain the correct texture and appearance of suitable coats. Most commonly associated with wire-coated terriers and some spaniels and other breeds.

Hand-stripping prices depend on coat condition, maturity, technique and the time required. Please contact us to discuss suitability and availability.

A note about double-coated breeds

Breeds such as Pomeranians, German Shepherds, Akitas and other double-coated dogs generally benefit from bathing, thorough drying, brushing and coat maintenance rather than close clipping.

We don’t routinely recommend shaving double coats unless there is a particular welfare or veterinary reason. Please ask our team if you’re unsure which service to book.
