Unveiling the Mini-Groom: Pampering Your Pooch Lightly
Introduction:
As dog owners, we all want our furry friends to look and feel their best. Regular grooming is an essential part of maintaining their overall health and well-being. While most of us are familiar with the concept of a full grooming session, have you ever heard of a mini-groom for dogs?
In this blog post, we will explore what a mini-groom entails and why it might be the perfect option for your beloved canine companion.
What is a Mini-Groom (also known as Face, Feet and Fanny)?
A mini-groom is the smaller version of a full grooming session, designed to keep your dog looking tidy and feeling comfortable between regular full grooming appointments. It typically includes a few essential grooming services, such as a bath, brush-out, nail trim, face trim, paw trim, and sanitary trim. The focus of a mini-groom is to address the most crucial grooming needs of your dog without the extensive styling and trimming involved in a full groom. It does not include taking shears or clippers to the actual BODY of the dog. Just the face, feet, and sanitary areas. Saves money and lets the body fur get longer.
Benefits of a Mini-Groom:
1. Maintaining cleanliness: Regular bathing and brushing help keep your dog's coat clean, free from tangles, and reduce shedding. A mini-groom ensures that your dog stays fresh and presentable, even if they are not due for a full grooming session.
2. Preventing matting and discomfort: Regular brushing during a mini-groom helps prevent matting, which can be painful for your dog. Matting can also lead to skin irritations and infections. By addressing this issue promptly, you can ensure your dog's comfort and overall well-being.
3. Nail care: Trimming your dog's nails is an essential part of their grooming routine. Overgrown nails can cause discomfort, affect their gait, and even lead to joint problems. A mini-groom includes a nail trim, ensuring your dog's paws are in good shape.
4. Sanitary trim: Maintaining proper hygiene is crucial for your dog's health. A mini-groom often includes a sanitary trim, which involves trimming the hair around the genital and anal areas. This helps prevent the accumulation of dirt and bacteria, reducing the risk of infections.
When to Opt for a Mini-Groom:
A mini-groom can be an excellent option for dogs who do not require extensive styling or trimming. It is particularly beneficial for dogs with shorter coats or those who are not prone to matting. Additionally, if your dog gets anxious or stressed during longer grooming sessions, a mini-groom can be a more manageable and comfortable experience for them.

NO SHOWS and LAST MINUTE CANCELLATIONS - 48-hour notice of cancellation required
We have been experiencing an increase in no shows and last-minute cancellations as many grooming salons have also. This does affect perosnal income for our amazing groomers since their pay is based on commission. When a client no shows or cancels last minute, the groomer does not have enough time to re-book the appointment slot or call a client from our waiting list.
Going forward from December 1, 2022, for all new clients we require a 20% credit card deposit for every grooming appointment scheduled.
Please note that we require a 48-hour notice for cancellations. ALL CANCELLATIONS must be made in writing within the original confirmation text stream - not only verbally - otherwise we have no proof that the appointment was actually cancelled.
Cancellations may be called in verbally but you must ALSO respond in writing within the original appointment text stream to cancel.
With the first no-show or last minute cancellation, deposit and 50% of the groom price will be charged.
After the second no show/last minute cancellation, 100% of the groom price will be charged and pre-payment of 100% for all future appointments will be required.
Thank you for your understanding. We love and appreciate all our clients and we value our groomer's time and schedules as well.
15 MINUTE LATE POLICY. We politely would like to ask that you arrive on time for your appointment. We have such high demand on our schedule that we must stay on track. We are really sorry for any inconvenience it may cause, but if you arrive more than 15 minutes late, we MAY have to reschedule you for another day. Thank you for understanding.
What our customers are saying about Dee-O-Gee
After trying other places, we decided to give Dee-O-Gee a try. What a pleasant surprise! These guys did a great job with my Shih Tzu! And she was so happy. They texted me when they started and sent a pic of her when she was done. They even brushed her teeth for me!
I highly recommend Dee-O-Gee!
