Dog Do's Grooming is a pet groomer at 1 Whakatiki Street in Trentham, Upper Hutt, near Wellington. It has a 5.0 rating on Google and a Facebook page.
A good dog groomer handles animals gently, explains what they are doing and keeps the dog calm and comfortable throughout. A groom usually includes a bath, blow-dry, brush-out, nail trim and a tidy of the coat, and some groomers also clean ears and trim around the eyes. When choosing one, ask what is included, how long the dog will be there, what vaccinations are required and how they handle nervous or older dogs. Regulars know that a regular groom every six to eight weeks prevents matting, that telling the groomer about skin problems or sore spots helps and that brushing your dog at home between visits makes the next groom easier. Bring your dog after a walk so they are relaxed, and be honest about temperament. The Facebook page is a good place to see the groomer's work and check availability.
