One dog, one groomer, no crates.
A bright little grooming shop in Lethbridge. Your dog goes from the front door straight to the tub, and home the moment they are done.
Prices
A full groom, priced by size
Bath, blow-out, haircut, nails and ears. We weigh at the door, so the price you are quoted is the price you pay.
Small
Under 20 lb. Yorkies, shih tzus and most terriers.
- About two hours, start to finish
- Face and feet scissored by hand
- Nails filed smooth, not just clipped
$70
Medium
20 to 50 lb. Cockers, schnauzers and mini doodles.
- Clipper or scissor finish, your pick
- Ears cleaned and plucked if needed
- A bandana if they will wear one
$90
Large
50 to 80 lb. Goldens, labs and standard doodles.
- Two groomers for the bath
- A full blow-out before any cutting
- Paw pads trimmed for traction
$115
Double coats
Huskies, malamutes, Bernese and shepherds, priced by the coat as much as the weight.
- Undercoat blown out to the skin
- Deshedding soak included
- Feet, bum and ears tidied
$130+
Matted coats are $20 per 15 minutes of brushing out, and we call you before we shave instead.
Why no crates
Nobody waits in a kennel here.
A lot of grooming shops take six dogs at eight in the morning and crate them between steps. It is efficient, and it is why so many dogs shake in the car on the way there.
We book one dog per groomer. Yours goes from the door to the tub to the table, and we text you when there are about fifteen minutes left so you can be here when they are done.
It means we see fewer dogs a day. It also means a husky gets a full blow-out instead of a rushed one, and a nervous rescue gets to sniff the room first.
Extras
Small jobs and add-ons
Add any of these to a groom, or book them on their own.
Nail trim
Clipped and filed. No appointment on Saturdays until noon.
$18
Bath and tidy
A bath, a blow-dry and a tidy of the face, feet and bum between full grooms.
From $45
Puppy first visit
Under six months: a short bath, a nail trim and a lot of treats, so the next visit is easy.
$40
Teeth brushing
Enzyme paste and a finger brush, added to any groom.
$12
Deshedding treatment
A conditioning soak and a longer blow-out for the heavy spring and fall sheds.
$30
Paw and nose balm
For pads cracked by a winter of salted sidewalks.
$8
Around the shop
Towels, treats and the walk home
Juno used to come home from other groomers still shedding by the handful. After her first blow-out here we vacuumed once that week, and now she jumps out of the car to go in.

The team
Three groomers and a shop dog
Kira
Owner and groomer
Opened the shop in 2019 after a decade at a big-box grooming counter. Gives every doodle its first haircut herself.
Dev
Baths and blow-outs
Handles every husky, malamute and Bernese through the door. Owns more lint rollers than shirts.
Maddie
Groomer
Twenty years scissoring small breeds. The shih tzus know her car.
Pickle
Shop dog
Greets every client, supervises from the window bed, and has never once been groomed on schedule.
Questions
Before the first visit
Doodles and poodles every six weeks, or the coat mats behind the ears. Double coats at every change of season. Short coats whenever they roll in something.
No. A husky's coat keeps it cool in a Lethbridge summer and warm through a January cold snap. We blow out the undercoat instead.
No. Nervous dogs are the reason we work one at a time. The first visit can be short, with more treats than grooming, and we build from there.
For a puppy's first visit, yes. Most other dogs settle faster without you, and we send a photo from the table.
A clean dog for the coulee walk.
Tuesday to Saturday, one dog at a time. Most regulars book the next visit at pickup.
