Everything you need to know before your dog's visit.
Most dogs benefit from a full groom every 4–8 weeks, depending on coat type, breed, and lifestyle. Longer-haired and double-coated breeds often need more frequent visits to prevent matting, while short-coated breeds can usually go a little longer between sessions.
