| Jaxon goes to the groomers every 6 to 8 weeks (more often than I get my own hair cut!!). It's $35 each time but I always says it's worth it.

| my boys get done every 8 weeks. it costs $45 each. they get their nails trimmed 1x in between. that's $10 each. they use the same shampoo and conditioner as me, so i don't consider that as an extra, special cost. they get bathed once every 7-10 days and i do it myself. |

| I am A Mobile Groomer In Phoenix area. I charge for a full groom with trim, $55. For a bath, sanitary and nails some scissoring $50. With gas prices and my generator running off gas, I don't know how it will go. Mobile is a personal one dog at a time, low stress way for a sensative lil' yorkie to be groomed. I noticed one owner here uses good products like Les Pooch brush, professional shampoo, dryer etc. All dogs need regular grooming, be it professional ort by owner. As for teeth brushing if there is tasrter it only irratates the gums and opens them up for infection. I sell a gel that is all natural grapefruit seed extract and other ingredients that disolves the tarter in 30-60 days with twice daily use. IT WORKS! Once clean every few days a week or so. It appears that all you members here care very much for your furbabies and take excellent care of them. I salute you. |

| I pay about 35-45 for Hot Rod every 2 months. We bath him in between and I comb him daily and brush his teeth myself.

| I've taken my pup to the groomer once about 6 weeks ago and he has another appointment scheduled for tomorrow. She charged $35 and then with tip it was $40. It was his first time so she said he was a bit scared of the clippers so she couldn't get his face very short and he was a bit choppy in other places too. Not sure if it will be much better tomorrow. We shall see...

| I have not used cowboy magic yet but hear from other groomers it is great for removing tangles. It is slippery and maybe silicone based. As for demineralizer.....never heard of it. Senproco makes Coat Handler. Natural, gentle and best I have found for Yorkie coats. |

| If they want to bring them every month I will lower the cost.. like for a yorkie 10 bls or less..not badly matted $25.00. 5wks..i will add $3.00 an so on. this is for normal maintance..flea,shedding, any speical shampoos are extra example..I had a lg english sheep dog come in so badly matted it tooks 3 hrs to shave him down and look good. we charge $60.00 (cheap) but now she brings him in every 5 wks and I only charge her 30 he is looking really good now.and she can afford to keep Duke looking sweet and handsome. I will work out something with my customer if they can not afford it..

| He was much much better this time. I took pictures in of the puppy cut showing her exactly what I wanted it to look like this time and she did a great job. She said he held very still this time & that he was a very good boy.....of course, I already knew THAT. How do you groomers get them to stand so still for you? It truly amazes me, what a skill! I'm so impressed......I know he wouldn't be that cooperative for me, he puts up quite a fuss just when I give him a bath.

| Winston goes to the groomer every 2 weeks...$14.00 per visit. I have used the same wonderful groomer for 16 years. When she moved from one vet's office to another...I went with her. Wouldn't trade her for the world...she's great!

| Mobile Is Always more because of the distance and gas prices going up, up, up and my profit going down. I was stood up today for a 2 dog family and I even went after my cut off time. I waited 30 minutes with A/C on. I don't have her newest phone # and she has not called me after I left 2 cards. One on the garage door and one on the front door. I have to charge more to cover situations like this. $25 is too low for the USA average price, so is the other for the larger dog. |
