Why do we not offer/advertise cheap washing & towel drying?
We don’t offer or promote towel drying because leaving your pooch wet/damp is not good for their skin health. It can open the door for skin irritations & infections such as hot spots/yeast & fungal infections. Being wet in colder or more humid months regularly your pooch can develop pneumonia, it can cause matting on long coated & double coated breeds, people don’t realise that the blow drying stage is the longest & most important stage of grooming. Plus what’s the point in washing them if they are only going to smell like a wet dog? Doesn’t matter how much cologne you use they’ll still have that doggy smell few days later once that cologne wears off.
We do understand it’d make it more affordable for some to have their beloved pets bathed, but if your pet is one that happens to develop a skin issue leaving you with a vet trip and few weeks of treatment is it saving money?. Sure it’d allow us to do more jobs a day, easier & less time for us right! Wrong, in the long run it makes our job longer & harder & for some breeds may result in a shave down.
Please understand that we are professional groomers with your pets interests at heart, your dogs health is what’s important to us, sure we have a handful of clients that can not be blow dried but trust me, we’ve tried every way possible to safely attempt in getting them as dry as possible.
Our prices reflect the fact that we are a professional mobile service that comes to your door, the quality of our work & the time spent. So please before you question why bob up the road is only charging $20 and we are charging our prices think about who’s actually got your pets interests at heart.
Yours truly,
Spoiled Rotten
