More Than a Haircut

Grooming is part of your dog’s overall well-being.

With more than 20 years of experience in pet grooming, Captain K9 understands that grooming is about much more than keeping your dog looking good.

During a grooming appointment, our team pays close attention to your dog’s coat, skin, ears, eyes and nails. Changes such as excessive shedding, irritation, inflammation or overgrown nails can sometimes become noticeable during routine grooming.

Dogs cannot always tell us when something is uncomfortable. Regular grooming gives owners another opportunity to notice changes early while helping keep their pets clean, comfortable and cared for.

Coat

Patient, attentive grooming designed to help your dog look and feel their best.

Frequently Asked Questions

Grooming questions, answered.

01 How often should I trim my dog's nails?

For indoor or urban dogs, it's best to trim their nails every two weeks. Without regular trimming, and with limited opportunities for outdoor activities to naturally wear down their nails, they can grow too long. Trimming every two weeks helps prevent overgrowth and reduces the risk of bleeding when trimming.

02 Do all dogs need ear hair plucking?

Not all dogs require ear hair plucking, but common breeds that do include Shih Tzus, Poodles, and Schnauzers. Generally, ear hair should be plucked every month to prevent ear mites and unpleasant odors.

03 How often should pets be bathed in North America?

In North America, where the air tends to be dry and environments are generally clean, dogs and cats typically need a bath every two months. However, long-haired breeds like Poodles, Maltese, and Bichons should be bathed every 6 weeks for small grooming and have their hair trimmed every 12 weeks for full grooming. For dogs with body odor or those who get dirty often, bathing as needed is advisable.
