How often to the groomers? The groomer that I take my Maltese & Yorkie to recommends a Maintenance Plan in which you bring your dogs every 2 weeks for a reduced price. Does anyone take theirs that often? Is it helpful? |
I take my yorkie to groomer once a month. |
every week Lola is taken to the groomers Louise Harris mummy of lola who has spent $110,000 on her little baby has her own personal groomer for Lola where she has nail painting and massages every week. I wouldn't mind being lola :) http://www.divadogs.co.uk/news.php?article=6 and spent $20,000 on pet carriers there is a breakdown of what this lady has spent. it's a LOT! |
I take mines twice a year...and in between the time I do all the basic myself... |
Hmmmm...I still have to take them for the first time. |
Jewels goes every month because she has a long coat and Chachi has a short coat and goes every couple of months |
ok something is off here at my house, because I take Bobo once a week for a bath and a blow dry. I can not do his hair good enough to make it look as good as they do. He definitley needs a bath once a week or he has a really strong doggy smell. luckily they only charge me 10.00 for just a bath and dry, with a bow in the hair. Tammy |
My groomer comes to the house every six weeks. In between that I bath and clean my dogs ears weekly!:aimeeyork |

i was thinking the same thing!!:D he is only 13 weeks old so i do not feel a rush to have him groomed yet. i do want to find a good one to give him a puppy cut though - i don't like the long hair look on boys. |
We bring Tia in once a month...and I bathe her every week between visits, along with other maintenance (brushing, teeth, etc). |
i bathe and dry maggie once a week, she gets brushed twice a day, and i have only cut her hair once. I have asked in the past if I should take her to get trimmed or not...I dont know if these guys suffer from split ends the way we humans do :) but I am thinking she will start needing trims soon. I'm thinking once a month but I will see what others say... |
I try to take him once a month....but it hasnt worked out that way. He has only been to the groomer twice since Ive had him. December and February. In between that I've trimmed him myself a couple of times and I bathe him once a week. Im going to take him back soon.....He's starting to look like a homeless dog:p |
My babies go to the groomer once a month for the works. But at home I give them a bath and clean their ears every week. I also take them in-between grooming visits (every 2 weeks) for touch-ups (trim by the eyes, cut nails if necessary and sanitary trim). |
Once a month My male maltese loves the outdoors:rolleyes: and Dior has a strong puppy smell. (the vet says no, but i am with her every day):D . I give them a bath every 2 weeks. I would wash them DAILY if it was allowed:) |
Cali goes every 3 months for a good professional groom and I do it the rest of the time. Pixie has never been and I don't think she will. She has a very silky, thin coat that doesn't mat and is a breeze to groom. |
Mine go every couple of weeks. I usually take them every other Friday, and lately, it's been opposite Fridays. So I'll take Pixie this Friday, and Bogey next Friday and so on ;) |
We have some clients that come every week, some every two weeks and some 4 and 6 weeks and a few that come once a year, weather they need it or not!!! For puppies that are going to come on a regular basis I like to see them once a month, that way they are not afraid and the learn the routine. My Glimmer that sleeps with me , she gets a bath once or twice a week depends on if she gets smelly . She sleeps next to my pillow and she just has to smell good!!! I tell my clients to come as often as you can afford it and I will keep your dogs looking great!! Owner Best Friends Pet Salon Salem Oregon |
Same here. I have clients that come to me every week (reduced price), since it's very easy to groom them. Some come every 2 weeks, once a month and then there are those that come in whenever they want miracles performed........usually every 3 or 4 months. I usually recommend once a month, especially the soft coated yorkies. |
we do every 6 weeks. when weeks 4-5 rolls around, she desperately needs grooming. |
4 Attachment(s) Even my Standard Poodle "Chaucer" gets a bath once a week and needs a hair cut at least every two weeks , I just hate a hairy face and feet. It is hard to be a groomer and see one of your own dogs messy. Chaucer loves the off leash park where he gets to play hard with his friends. Yep he gets dirty!! Attachment 115760 Attachment 115761 Attachment 115762 Attachment 115763 I don't know what I would do if I had to live with a dog that didn't get groomed often. owner Best Friends Pet Salon Salem Oregon |

When I first started grooming I hated poodles they were so hard to do , as I am self taught. Tim Reese a well known handler started showing my Shih Tzu for me and I shared my thoughts about poodles with him. He was a poodle breeder at the time. I told him I wouldn't have a poodle if someone gave me one. And at the next show there he was a min. black poodle baby just for me. My job was to groom show and finish him. And Tim would help me along the way correcting my scissoring skills. Well I named him "Dunkirk's Just Fur Fun and called him Timmy after Tim Reese. That is how I became a great groomer and that is how I got my love for the poodle. Tim is a very smart man. |

I've never been drawn to poodles but your Chaucer is awesome! He doesn't have any tear stains either... why do some have it and other don't? I love your heart on his side, too! The place that I usually take Mia to get groomed does that too. They are strictly Shih Tzu people and love coloring their hair. :) |
I was a hairdresser before I was a dog groomer so color only seems natural!!! and it is so much fun!!! The looks Chaucer gets while going down the street are amazing. |
We groom our own dogs, but we shampoo, condition, and blow dry once a week. Brush hair daily, wash face every other day or as needed. Trim nails and other "areas" as needed. Express anal glands as needed. They don't go to a groomer due to horrible experiences in the past with other dogs... |
