Updated 7 May 2024
Summary:
Our Tauranga dog grooming guide covers:
- If you have a dog with a long coat, you’ll want to keep it beautifully groomed. Grooming is not just for looks; however, as a matted or poorly maintained coat can be uncomfortable for the animal. In Tauranga and the surrounding area there is a wide choice of dog grooming parlours, but how do you find one you are willing to trust with your dog?
- You need to know that the groomer you pick will do a job that both you and your pet will be happy with, and that the dog will be cared for and treated carefully during grooming. This guide shortlists the best dog grooming professionals and explains what you need to know and how much you should expect to pay.
Our Tauranga dog grooming guide covers:
What Does Dog Grooming Cost in Tauranga?
The cost of dog grooming will depend upon what you require, and the type of dog. Dogs with longer coats that need special attention will naturally cost more. You will also find extras for a full shampoo, for example, and bigger breeds mean more work. As a guide, a full groom for a small breed should be around $70 and for a large breed $100, while a bath and dry for a short-haired breed will be in the region of $40 to $50 depending upon the size.
​What to Consider When Choosing a Dog Groomer in Tauranga
When you hand your beloved dog over to the groomer, you want to be sure he or she will be treated with the care and attention deserved. Here are some factors to think about:
- Visit the grooming parlour before you decide and check out the facilities.
- Do they have experience with the breed you own? Certain dogs need specialist grooming attention, and in some cases need an expert groom.
- Do they groom one dog at a time, or more than one? Will your dog be happy in a room with other dogs?
- Ask for their full list of services, as some groomers do more than others.
- Are owners allowed to stay and watch, perhaps if a dog is not used to being left?
- Always ask for details of the products they use and why and check them out for safety
- Do you like the staff and do you feel that you can trust them with your dog?
