Health Benefits of Dog Grooming

Grooming is much more than just a pretty pup—it’s an important part of their health care routine!

Our professional tools are designed to reach your pup’s inner coat layers and prevent trapped dirt and debris from causing any irritation or issues.
When allowed to grow too long, a pup’s nails can get uncomfortable and even disrupt posture and joint health. Our spa team provides quick and accurate nail trimming to keep your pup’s paws healthy.
Regular brush-outs keep your pup feeling and looking their best and reduces shedding around the house! For even better shed control, ask about our de-shed treatments.

Grooming & Spa FAQs

What are your vaccination requirements?

We take health and safety very seriously. To protect all pups in our care, we REQUIRE certification from your veterinarian that your pup has been vaccinated against:

Bordetella
Distemper (DHPP/DA2PP)
Rabies

We also HIGHLY RECOMMEND:

Vaccinating your pup against Leptospirosis and Canine Influenza, and
Having an annual fecal screening.

Of course, no pups are admitted with ticks, fleas, or other pests, and all should have legal licenses.

Do you require appointments?

To keep wait times as short as possible for our parents, we do require appointments for grooming and spa services. Call us at 202-481-4848 to schedule your pup's Spa Day!

How do I make an appointment?

Please call us at 202-481-4848 to schedule. We’ll be happy to discuss any specific requests or details for your pup’s perfect spa day.

What are your grooming and spa hours?

Our spa is open during our normal operating hours. We’re open from 7 AM to 7 PM every day of the week.

Can you give my pup a specific haircut/style?

Our spa team is experienced in providing many kinds of haircuts, from breed classics to custom cuts. Call us to discuss your pup’s perfect style.

What kinds of products do you use?

We only use high-quality, organic shampoos and conditioners designed for pups. We also have a line of specialty formulas, including deep conditioning, hypoallergenic, coat whitening, and others.

Can you groom my puppy?

Yes, we’d love to! We believe it’s important for puppies to have their first grooming experience early in life so they can get accustomed to the sounds and sights of the Spa. Our Spa Team is highly trained to provide a rewarding and safe Spa Experience for puppies.

How often should my pup come in for a bath?

Many pups benefit from a once-monthly bath, but it depends on your pup’s individual coat, activity level, and health. Some pups need a bath every two weeks!

How often does my pup need their nails trimmed?

Like human nails, your pup’s nails grow at a constant rate and will get uncomfortably long if not trimmed regularly. To keep their paws in tip-top condition, most parents bring their pup for a nail trim every 2-3 weeks.

Can my pup get a bath or groom during their Daycare or Sleepover reservation?

Certainly! We’ll be happy to add a spa appointment to your pup’s reservation. Just give us a call ahead of time so we can book their appointment.

What is your cancelation policy?

You may cancel your appointment with 72 hours notice for a full refund. All cancelation requests should be submitted by email to info@colbysdogcare.com.
