The goal is to understand your individual needs and requirements, as well as what is manageable for your special K9 on a day to day basis, with a full understanding and guided approach for those that also need extra special care i.e., nervous and/or older dogs, thus providing the best possible experience time and time again.
Fully trained to Kennel Club breed standard along with a full understanding of mixed breeds - the approach for all fabulous K9 clients is that ‘all dogs are different and unique’ and that the methodology is bespoke and personalised for every dog.
Treatments are never rushed and this ensures that every K9 client has a positive and relaxing experience, full of constant reassurance, cuddles and rest breaks. All K9 clients are hand dried as cabinet dryers are not used at The K9 Spa.

If your puppy doesn’t yet need a groom or even a bath, but you would like to get them used to The K9 Spa and to see that it is not a place to dread coming to, then why not bring him/her in to get used to the smells, what it feels like to sit up on the table, get brushed out etc.
