Dog grooming: the basics
What the job involves
Groomers bath, dry, brush out, clip or hand-strip, trim nails and clean ears, with styles for each breed. Mobile groomers come to you in a van; salons may offer day care while you wait. Nervous dogs and puppies often need a shorter first visit.
What to ask a pro, and what to have ready
Say the breed, size, coat condition and temperament, and when your dog was last groomed. Ask how long it takes, whether the price depends on coat condition (matted coats take longer), and how they handle anxious dogs.
Safety and good to know
Dog grooming does not need a licence in England, so ask about training and insurance. Make sure vaccinations and flea treatment are up to date. LincsDirectory doesn't vet or endorse businesses — always check credentials and get a written quote.
Good to know
a matted coat often has to be clipped short because de-matting is painful for the dog; regular grooming prevents it. Puppies can start with short introductory sessions to get used to the dryer and clippers. Tell the groomer about any lumps, sore spots or health conditions.

How often should a dog be groomed?
It depends on the coat: curly and long coats often every four to eight weeks, short coats less often. Regular brushing at home between visits prevents matting.
