Grooming Guide

Grooming prices vary for a very simple reason — the amount of time and the skill it takes to provide your pet with a quality grooming experience. It isn't just about the size of your dog; in fact, sometimes smaller dogs that require meticulous work take longer and therefore cost more.

Bandanas takes into consideration breed, age, size, length and condition of coat, cooperation of your pet, and services required.

Our minimum price is $70. We tend to be higher than traditional grooming establishments because we include our travel, so you don't have to make the trip. Plus, you get the convenience of grooming at your door, and your dog gets one-on-one attention from the same person every time your dog is groomed.

Prices typically range from $70 to $125. Once we meet your dog, we will be able to quote you a specific price.

Bandanas tries to include all charges in our pricing so there won't be any surprises. Luxury, medicated, de-skunking, and basic deShedding shampoos are included in the price. However, there may be times when significantly extra work and time are required to make your dog look and feel great. The following conditions may result in an additional fee.

• Length and condition of coat – Excessive matting or dirt, or more hair than normal for that breed
  
  
• Age – Puppies and geriatric dogs that require special time-consuming handling or more than one person for grooming
  
  
• Temperament and behavior – Aggressive, uncooperative, and special needs dogs that require extra time
  
  
• Length of time since last groom – Prices assume dogs are on a regular 4 to 8 week grooming schedule; "overgrown" or matted coats require additional time
  
  
• Shave-downs (summer "strips") – Price depends upon size of dog and length of coat
  
  
• Extensive DeShedding treatment – This would include significant brushwork to remove dense undercoat with a special DeShedding tool, shampoo, and conditioner
