A fresh bath & tidy, a short walk from home.

A bath & tidy keeps a coat clean, comfortable and easy to manage between full grooms. It’s a warm bath, a careful dry and a thorough brush-out, with a neat tidy of the face, feet and hygiene areas.

There’s no full reshaping, so the visit is simpler. For smooth and double coats it’s often all they need: a good wash and a proper de-shed.

Many owners alternate a full groom with a bath & tidy. Tell us how their coat behaves between visits and we’ll suggest a rhythm.

From the coat library

Coats we often see for this groom.

  • Double coats

    Huskies, retrievers, shepherds

    A deep wash and a thorough de-shed with a high-velocity dryer. We never shave a double coat unless your vet advises it.

  • Smooth coats

    Beagles, Labradors, boxers

    A good bath, a rubber-brush de-shed, nails and ears. Quick, clean and fresh.

  • Curly coats

    Poodles, doodles, bichons

    A bath, a full blow-dry to straighten the curl and a scissor or clipper finish to the length you’d like.

  • Wiry coats

    Schnauzers, terriers, wire-haired dachshunds

    A bath and a tidy, with the shape kept neat around the face, beard and legs.

A bath & tidy, or a full groom?

If you’re happy with their current shape and simply want them fresh, a bath & tidy is right. If the coat has grown out of shape, or you’d like a new finish, book a full groom.

Not sure? Call us or pop in, and we’ll feel the coat and tell you which one makes sense.

Bring along

  • Date of their last full groom
