Treatments to Keep Every Hound Looking Their Best

Full Groom

Duration: 1 to 3 Hours

Our most complete grooming experience, tailored to your dog’s breed, coat type, and lifestyle. Includes a full brush-out, double shampoo and conditioning treatment, gentle facial scrub, and hand blow-dry. Finished with your choice of haircut, de-shed, or hand strip, nail and pad tidy, ear clean, and a spritz of our luxury finishing cologne.

Wash & Fluff

30 minutes to 1.5 Hours

Perfect for keeping coats clean and fresh between full grooms. This treatment includes a full brush-out, double shampoo and conditioning, gentle facial scrub, and a thorough hand blow-dry. Finished with our signature luxury finishing cologne for that freshly groomed feel.

Wash & De-Shed

Duration: 1 to 1.5 Hours

Designed for double-coated and high-shedding breeds, this treatment helps reduce loose hair and maintain a healthy coat. It includes a full brush-out, double shampoo and coat-conditioning treatment, gentle facial scrub, thorough hand blow-dry, ear clean, and nail trim — all finished with our luxury cologne spritz.

Puppy Intro

Duration: 30 minutes to 1 Hour

A gentle, positive introduction to the sights and sounds of the grooming studio. We recommend one or two introductory visits before your puppy’s first full groom, starting once their vaccinations are complete. Each session includes a light brush-out, double shampoo and conditioning, facial scrub, hand blow-dry, nail clip, and a spritz of our luxury cologne.

Pricing varies depending on your dog’s size, coat type, and grooming requirements. We’ll provide an individual quote when you book.

Our Approach to Grooming

At The Stylish Hound, every groom is carried out by a qualified professional who understands that every dog has their own quirks, comforts, and pace. We take time to get to know each hound, adapting our approach so that every visit feels as positive and reassuring as possible.

Dog grooming isn’t a regulated industry, but we believe it should be. That’s why our team are qualified, canine first aid trained, and committed to continual learning. We use high-quality, well-maintained equipment and thoughtful handling techniques to make every session safe and comfortable.

Our groomers work with patience and genuine care, taking time to ensure every dog feels comfortable and confident throughout their visit. Whether it’s a puppy’s first wash or a regular trim for a familiar face, each hound leaves looking and feeling their best.

What to Expect

We want every visit to feel straightforward and stress-free — for both you and your hound. Here’s what you can expect when you book a grooming appointment at The Stylish Hound.

Step 1 – Book Your Appointment

You can get in touch by phone, our contact form, or pop into the shop to arrange a suitable date and time. We’ll confirm the details, answer any questions, and make sure you’re booked in for the right type of grooming appointment. You’ll also receive an appointment confirmation and reminder via email and text.

Step 2 – Consultation

When you arrive, we’ll take a few minutes to discuss your dog’s coat, preferred style, and any sensitivities or behaviours we should be aware of. This ensures we tailor every groom to your dog’s individual needs.

Step 3 – The Groom

Your hound is then in expert hands. We use high-quality products, professional equipment, and gentle techniques to make the experience as comfortable and positive as possible.

Step 4 – Finishing Touches & Aftercare

Once the groom is complete, we’ll add our luxury finishing cologne and carry out a quick coat check. We’ll share any observations and aftercare tips so you can keep your dog looking and feeling their best between visits.

Common Questions

We’ve answered some of the most common questions about our grooming services below. If there’s anything else you’d like to know, please don’t hesitate to get in touch — we’re always happy to help.

How often should my dog be groomed?

Most breeds benefit from grooming every 4–8 weeks, though this can vary depending on coat type, lifestyle, and how much maintenance you do at home. We’re happy to recommend a schedule that suits your dog.

What if my dog is nervous or doesn’t like grooming?

We completely understand. Our team are experienced in working with nervous or rescue dogs and will always take things at your dog’s pace. We use gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and lots of patience to build confidence over time.

Do I need to stay during the groom?

We find that most dogs settle best once their owner has left, so we recommend dropping your dog off and collecting them at the agreed time. You’re always welcome to call if you’d like an update during their appointment.

What products do you use?

We only use professional-quality shampoos and conditioners that are kind to skin and coat, free from harsh chemicals, and cruelty-free. If your dog has allergies or sensitive skin, please let us know so we can select the most suitable products for them.

How do I prepare my dog for their appointment?

Please ensure your dog has been to the toilet before arrival and is reasonably clean and dry. A short walk beforehand can help them relax, and brushing at home between grooms will make their visit easier and more comfortable.

Can I bring my puppy for grooming?

Yes! Once your puppy has completed their vaccinations, you can book a Puppy Intro session. It’s the perfect way to gently introduce them to the sights, sounds, and sensations of the grooming studio.

Do you need proof of vaccinations?

For everyone’s safety, we ask that all dogs are up to date with their core vaccinations. If you’re unsure, your vet will be able to advise. You do not need to provide proof of vaccinations

What’s your cancellation policy?

We kindly ask for at least 48 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. Missed or last-minute (less than 24 hours notice) cancellations may incur a fee.

How long will my dog’s appointment take?

That depends on the service, size, and coat type. Smaller grooms may take around an hour, while full grooms can take up to three. We’ll confirm an approximate time when you drop off your dog.
