All Breed Pet Grooming 

At Beyond Grooming we have professionals experienced in all breeds so species, size and temperament is not an issue. There is always someone for everyone; dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, ferrets, guinea pigs, etc.

If your pet has a special need please let us know so we can match them with the best groomer to give them the most pleasant experience. Usually after a few sessions your pet will feel more comfortable and relaxed during their grooming.

We always look forward to giving your pet the best possible experience!

Haircuts

Unless you're going to the show ring there is no specific clip for any breed. We can give one pet many different styles, check out the gallery page, Facebook, Yelp, Google and Instagram for some ideas. Always feel free to bring pictures or create your own style! When you arrive with your pet, we will discuss the proper grooming needs for you and your pet.

Did you know there are two different coat types and one should not be shaved?

 HAIR-BEARING

Poodles, Shih Tzus, Spaniels, Terriers, Cats can be shaved.

FUR-BEARING

Collies, Huskies, Pomeranians, Chows, Retrievers, etc. should not be shaved unless necessary. Shaving a fur bearing dog you risk damaging the coat known as "Coat Funk" which refers to a myriad of diseases such as The Black Skin Disease, Alopecia X, Sebaceous Adenitis, Post Shaving Alopecia, etc. The cause is unknown to medical researchers and not all fur bearers get “Coat Funk”, it really depends on the individual pet. In my experiences there is a 50-50 chance, 75% for huskies. It's a higher risk the shorter and more often you shave. Once informed we leave the decision to you. In some cases such as severe matting, shaving is the best option for your pet.

By state law we must have a current copy of your pets rabies certificate signed by the veterinarian.

Proper nails should be off the ground when your dog stands square, nails that curl or bend can cause foot and joint deformities. It is especially heart breaking to pull nails out of their pads! If we have to we will gladly help and yes we will agree you have been a bad parent but we will not condemn or judge so don’t be too embarrassed to get them to us ASAP, VIP and we make it as simple as possible! Yes we can also dock broken nails if need be so it can start the healing process. Grooming can be uncomfortable at times but the satisfaction once complete is better than any biscuit! Nail buffing smooths the edges after clipping.

Proper ear care is important for all breeds, especially hair bearing because they grow hair inside their ears! It can be hard to determine if plucking is the best option because it can cause irritation and an angry ear but in most cases we choose to do so to allow air flow to the ear canal as clogged ears can lead to a much bigger problem than the short discomfort of plucking. Smelly, irritated, red, grimy, itchy ears are a warning sign that a bigger problem is forming or already formed and the sooner you get in there, the quicker and easier it will be to resolve the problem! Colloidal silver and zymox are my go to formulas, if caught early enough you can prevent the need for more powerful treatments from the vet. If your pet is scratching, tilting or shaking their head, take a minute to see what they are trying to tell you. In many cases it will serve you both good!

Maintaining the teeth can prevent costly dental care and internal disease such as kidney failure. A tooth brushing is more detailed than just the tarter spray. Using a special brush and toothpaste designed for our furry friends we carefully scrub the teeth and circulate gums.

Anal glands are two sacs on each side of the rectum that holds their identity fluid which secrets with a bowel movement. Sometimes they can overfill. Excessive fluid not being properly released can lead to leakage, impaction, infection or even burst. Although it is a catch 22 because the more you remove the more the body will reproduce so there is a happy medium. We offer an external expression when needed.
