COLLECTION AND DROP OFF SERVICE
I also provide a collection and drop off service for your dog for which I am fully insured. Small dogs are transported in a cage on the back seat of my car and medium / large dogs sit in the boot of my car.
Prices for transport are as follows:
0-3 mile distance from your house to mine - £3
3-5 mile distance from your house to mine - £5
5+ mile distance from your house to mine - please ring to discuss
MATTED DOGS
If your dog is extremely matted then this could incur an additional £3 charge. This is for wear and tear on my grooming equipment and the extra time it will take me to strip off your dog's coat. However, I will always ring a customer first to discuss this.
NB: A matted coat can make a dog's life miserable, the matts pull on the dog's coat when it moves. In extreme cases the matts can become so tight they tear the skin. A matted coat can also lead to the dog suffering from sore and infected skin as the air does not pass through the coat properly.
