The Posh Paw welcomes puppies from any age, early introduction to the grooming environment is something which we believe to be vital for puppies, especially breeds that will require regular grooming as adults.  The earlier that puppies are introduced to the grooming process, the more at ease they will be with it, and the more they will enjoy visiting us! 

 

The programme is suited for puppies up to 6 months of age, and we are able to schedule an appointment providing that a week has passed since their second vaccinations.

 

Our Puppy Pamper Programme is a set price of £85, and this includes four, one hour* visits spaced 2 weeks apart with the sole purpose of getting your dog used to the grooming process.

Each session will be led entirely by your dog, and you will receive an individual ‘puppy progress report’ after each visit so that you can see how well they are doing and what areas we need to work on the next time they come.  We will also provide you with a puppy care leaflet and spend time with you to ensure that you have the best tools and tips for maintaining you new pets coat between grooms so that you can be sure that you are achieving the look you want every time.

​

We’ll take each session at the pace and comfort of each individual puppy, their first visit will be an introduction to the salon, our aim is to achieve some/all of the following- brush, comb, nail clip, hygiene clip, face tidy, feet tidy**.  Some more confident puppies might comfortably achieve all of this on their first visit, but as our aim is to ensure that each session is ended on a positive note, and that the puppy is comfortable throughout, then some puppies may need a more gradual introduction over the four visits, once they are more comfortable with the grooming process we would then progress towards bathing, gentle blow drying and preparing towards achieving a big boy/girl full groom. Each session will end with a positive experience and play time.

​

*Certain breeds may require longer!
**If you believe your puppy requires a full groom before the end of the Puppy Pamper Programme, we may be able to do so. We can discuss if we believe your puppy is ready for a full groom. The Posh Paw will need notice beforehand to accommodate extra time, and an additional cost will be needed (price confirmed by groomer).
