Quality Services Provided by Tails R Wagging

Dog grooming can be an adventure for our favourite four-legged friends and to make it more enjoyable our grooming specialised grooming spas located at our grooming centre Rozelle, Sydney are made mainly of glass windows so customers can see their dogs (and other dogs) being groomed and we do not use cages! Our dog groomers are very experienced, from showdogs to your everyday pet cuts. Most of all our groomers are loving and caring towards the dogs. Ask any of the customers coming to us from all over Sydney.

At Tails R Wagging we provide specialty breed clips as well as the family pet clips. Poodle grooming is just one of our specialties. Our breed clips and longer clips are all hand scissored which require highly skilled personal and a lot of patience. These clips are more expensive due to the time and expertise required to make your dog look a cut above the rest. Two clip offs are necessary to achieve the ultimate look, the first clip will remove all the excess hair, followed by a full wash & blow dry to straighten the coat, enabling the groomer to hand scissor the remaining to achieve the best possible finish.

We are proud to announce that Tails R Wagging now have two international groomers who have won many grooming awards working along side three caring groomers with years of experience in pet clips.

We also provide a unique service where our clients can (DIY) hydro bath larger dogs for themselves in our state of the art red spa bath. Not only is this fun it saves you doing it at home with all the mess.

At our Rozelle branch your dogs will have the added opportunity to play in our Doggie Day care while awaiting their owners return. There is plenty of space & most dogs enjoy the company.

Any dogs that have had previous injuries or being slightly older are given special treatment.

Skin Problems

At Tails R Wagging you will be given the choice of shampoos making sure you have the correct one especially for your dog’s particular skin type. These will range from soothing oatmeal, rose oils, conditioners as well as unique formulas for a black or white dog, medicated for irritating rashes and flea treatments.

Fleas are a constant problem especially in our Sydney summers; at Tails R Wagging we reduce fleas by suggesting Capstar tablets, only after initial consultation with you about the welfare of your dog. Understanding has taught us that animals with fleas are best washed in a soothing shampoo so that the skin is not aggravated again. Capstar is a short acting remedy and will only last for nine hours. Please feel free to contact our vet nurse who is only too willing to help. We provide expert advice to combat these pests ranging from our natural Fleapetics products to the commercial brands availabe. Spraying your pets sleeping area with a flea bomb along with washing all bedding will help eliminate the breeding cycle of the flea.

Dogs with matts & knots close to the skin are very difficult to have clipped with any length left on their coat. This is due to the discomfort matting causes to your pets. We are left with the only option that is to remove the entire coat below these matts. This is not pleasant for your pet & we recommend constant grooming between visits to avoid this in the future. We will discuss the best possible grooming regime & correct brushes that will suit your dog. Your dog’s blood supply may be diminished due to these matts as well as severe skin irritations that you may be previously unaware of. Matts will remain very damp underneath if the dog becomes wet & not completely drying your dog off after a bath will also add to these problems. Any dog with severe matts will be referred to a vet. Additional prices may be added due to the time these take to remove.

Ear Cleaning & Plucking

We highly recommend the constant cleaning & caring for your dogs ears in between all grooming visits. This will avoid any unnecessary discomfort with ears having to be plucked by our groomers all in one go. You will receive individual attention & advice from our qualified staff in the care & maintenance of this problem.

TLC is guaranteed.
