Grooming does more than keep your dog looking and smelling great—it plays a vital role in their overall health, comfort, and well-being. From coat maintenance to nail trimming, professional grooming supports skin health, mobility, and hygiene while helping dogs feel their best.
At Dog Mountain Pet Resort & Spa, a grooming appointment is more than just a bath. It’s a full spa experience designed to keep your pup comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for from start to finish.
Whether your dog joins us during a boarding stay, a daycare visit, or for a standalone spa day, here’s what you can expect when you groom with Dog Mountain.
Check-In & Personalized Consultation
Every grooming session begins with a one-on-one consultation. Our groomers take the time to discuss your dog’s coat type, lifestyle, and any special requests or concerns.
Whether you’re looking for a specific haircut, managing sensitive skin, or accommodating behavioral preferences, we customize each grooming experience to meet your dog’s individual needs.
Pre-Groom Preparation
Before bath time, our groomers perform a thorough pre-groom check to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety throughout the process.
Initial Coat Assessment
We carefully examine your dog’s coat for matting, tangles, or excessive shedding. Because mats can tighten when wet, addressing them beforehand helps prevent discomfort.
Brushing & De-Matting
Our groomers gently brush out loose hair and tangles. If severe matting is present, additional trimming or de-matting may be recommended to keep your pet comfortable.
Nail Trimming & Paw Check
We trim nails to a safe length and inspect paws to prevent discomfort during bathing, drying, and styling.
Ear Cleaning
Gentle ear cleaning removes wax buildup and helps prevent irritation and infections.
Sanitary Trim (If Needed)
A light trim around the rear area promotes cleanliness and helps reduce odor buildup.
Luxurious Bathing & Coat Treatments
Each dog enjoys a deep-cleansing bath using a shampoo selected specifically for their coat and skin needs. We offer hypoallergenic, moisturizing, oatmeal, and de-shedding shampoos, along with specialty treatments.
Want to add something extra? Our blueberry facials gently cleanse and brighten your dog’s face while leaving them smelling fresh and fabulous.
Blow Dry & Final Brush-Out
After the bath, we use a high-velocity dryer to remove loose hair and fluff the coat before styling. For dogs sensitive to noise, we also offer crate drying, where pets relax while gentle airflow dries their coat.
Once dry, our groomers perform a final brush-out to remove any remaining tangles and ensure a smooth finish.
Expert Haircut & Styling
For dogs receiving a Complete Groom or Mini Groom, this is where the transformation happens. Whether you prefer a breed-specific trim or a custom style, our groomers deliver expert results tailored to your preferences.
For double-coated breeds such as Huskies, German Shepherds, and Australian Shepherds, we focus on de-shedding treatments and outline trims. We avoid full shaving, which helps preserve coat health and supports natural temperature regulation.
Finishing Touches & Spa Enhancements
Every grooming session includes thoughtful finishing details to complete your pup’s spa day:
-
Paw pad trimming and moisturizing to protect sensitive paws
-
Cologne or coat freshener for a clean, fresh scent
-
A bandana or bow accessory for an adorable final touch
Looking for even more pampering? We also offer add-on services like teeth brushing, flea and tick baths, anal gland expression, and advanced de-shedding treatments.
Happy Pup, Happy Parent
At pickup, our team will share a full overview of your dog’s grooming session, including any observations about their coat, skin, ears, or nails. We’re also happy to provide at-home maintenance tips to help keep your dog looking great between visits.
Your freshly groomed pup will leave feeling clean, comfortable, and ready for compliments.
