Grooming That Goes Beyond the Surface
At The Family Puppy, we believe grooming is about more than just good looks — it's an essential part of your dog's health and happiness. Our professional groomers are trained to handle dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments with patience, gentleness, and skill.
Whether your pup needs a quick tidy-up or a full spa day, we provide a safe, clean, and stress-free environment so your furry family member feels comfortable from check-in to pick-up.
Why Regular Grooming Matters
- Healthier skin & coat — removes dirt, debris, and loose fur that can cause matting and irritation
- Early detection — our groomers watch for lumps, skin issues, ear infections, and nail problems
- Improved hygiene — clean ears, trimmed nails, and fresh coats keep your home cleaner too
- Reduced shedding — regular brushing and de-shedding treatments keep fur under control
- Happier pup — dogs simply feel better when they're clean, comfortable, and well-cared for

Grooming FAQs
We recommend bringing your puppy in for their first grooming appointment around 12–16 weeks of age, after they have received their initial vaccinations. Early, positive grooming experiences help puppies grow into calm, cooperative adult dogs.
It depends on your dog's breed and coat type. Most dogs benefit from a professional groom every 4–8 weeks. Dogs with longer or curly coats (like Doodles, Poodles, or Shih Tzus) typically need grooming every 4–6 weeks, while shorter-coated breeds may only need it every 8–12 weeks.
Please bring proof of current vaccinations, including rabies, distemper, and Bordetella (kennel cough). This helps us keep all dogs in our care safe and healthy.
Yes! Our groomers are experienced with a wide variety of breeds, from tiny Chihuahuas to larger breeds. We tailor every groom to your dog's specific coat type, breed standard, and your personal preferences.
We understand that some dogs need a little extra TLC. Our groomers are trained to work patiently and gently with anxious dogs. We recommend letting us know ahead of time so we can take extra care to make your pup feel safe and comfortable throughout their appointment.
Appointment times vary based on your dog's size, coat condition, and the services requested. A typical Bath & Brush takes 1–2 hours, while a Full Groom may take 2–4 hours. We'll give you an estimated time when you drop off.
Most dogs actually do better when their owner steps away, as they tend to be less distracted and more relaxed with our groomers. We'll take excellent care of your pup and have them ready for a happy reunion!
