Services
We offer a wide range of services from toenail clipping to a full groom. In addition we have toys, leashes, collars, bandanas, and bows.
Toenails: We clip and file the nails. There are times when the owners feel like the nails are too long. This is not always the case; if the quick of the nail is long you cannot cut the nail short without causing it to bleed. Clipping nails often will help the quick recede to be able to cut the nails shorter.
Ears: The ear treatment is such a vital part of grooming. Ear infections can be held at a minimum or completely done away with if the ears are treated properly. Here at Dawg E. Day S'Paw we do two (2) ear treatments, one in the tub and the other on the grooming table. Several breeds have to have hair removed from the inside of the ear. We use a powder and plucking motion with our fingers. We do not use hemostats. We have found that this is less painful for the pup.
Shampoo & Conditioner: We examine every dog to best match the shampoo to the dogs' skin type, hair type, and of course breed and color. We do not use soap based shampoos. We only use a hypo tearless on the face and head.
Drying Process: Our dryers are not heated, they blow at room temperature. This eliminates the possibility of the dog being exhausted by heat. They are only in the drying cage a short time, just to help with the excess water. Then they are taken to a drying table to finish drying with a hand dryer.
Groom: The groom is based on the conversation with the groomer and the owner at intake.
Cage Free: Our shop is cage free except for the drying process. However we have cages on hand for different options. If the owner request that their furry friend be put in a cage during their stay, and/or if your pup cannot get along with the others, he or she may have to go in time out for a short bit. We make sure that everyone has play time and is not cooped up in a cage during their stay.
Socializing Daycare: At present time we do not have the facilities for outdoor activities. We only have space available for doing their outdoor business. Here at Dawg E. Day S'Paw we allow your pup to play with others and to learn how to be a good sport about sharing food, toys, and attention.
