A locally owned dog grooming business in Welbourn, New Plymouth, started in 1993, with a hydraulic bath that lowers close to the ground and a ramp for older dogs. Cool Clips is at 25 Tainui Street. The website describes the groomer as qualified in all-breeds grooming since 1996, with long experience in dog obedience and breed showing. Its prices, as at 2026, start at $50 for very small to medium dogs and for large dogs, $70 for very large dogs, $35 for a bath and blow dry on short-haired breeds, and $40 for long-haired breeds. A flea rinse is offered, which the website says is popular in summer. The website also says all animals are caged for their own safety and wellbeing.
Reviewers describe a dog that came home looking fantastic after a haircut, a consistently great and tidy clip, and very good value for money. Nearby, Jane's Dog Grooming Studio, at the same spot, rates lower, on 36 reviews.
