Sometimes dogs can become very matted, and we completely understand how easily this can happen. Mats can trap moisture, dirt, and bacteria, and they often pull on the skin, which can be uncomfortable and even restrict your dog’s movement.

Trying to brush out severe matting can be very stressful and painful for your dog, and we always want grooming to be a positive experience for them. Mats are most common in areas like, ears, harness/collar areas, the groin, under the armpits, and around the tail, but in some cases they can cover large areas of the body, forming a thick, blanket-like coat where brushing hasn’t been able to reach through. In these situations, the kindest and most comfortable option for your dog is usually to clip the coat off completely. This quickly removes the matting and helps your dog feel much happier and more at ease.

The de-matting/clip off prices do not include the price of a bath or full groom. Prices or bookings cannot be given over the phone without firstly having a consultation with yourself and your doggy. Please don't feel embarrassed, we know a lot of pet parents feel this way, if you feel your dog needs this service and our expertise we are more than happy to help because things happen, all we want is to make your dog feel happy and comfortable again and then we can give you tips on how to keep onto of their coat and avoid and further mats.

Just a little note: De-matting a coat can be a lengthy and tedious procedure, not only for the dog but for us too. We aim to make every appointment as comfortable, safe and as stress free as we can, this is why additional time and additional charges are needed as it's not a standard appointment. All animals who may need a de-matt appointment and like any other appointment, they will be let down off the table if they become fidgety so they can have a break and a drink or a toilet stop. There's always time for another treat too.
