Frequently Asked Questions

How do you handle grooming for double-coated breeds common in Alaska, like Huskies and Malamutes, to ensure their coat health in our climate?

We specialize in the proper grooming of double-coated breeds and never perform a full shave, which can permanently damage their coat and insulation. Our process involves a thorough de-shedding treatment using high-velocity dryers and specialized tools to remove the loose undercoat without compromising the protective topcoat. This is crucial for Big Lake's variable weather, as it helps regulate your dog's body temperature year-round, keeping them cool in summer and properly insulated during our cold winters.

My dog loves swimming in Big Lake. Do you offer services to remove 'swimmer's tail' and clean out debris like burrs or pine sap from their coat?

Absolutely. We offer a specific 'Post-Lake Rinse & Groom' package designed for local active dogs. This includes a deep cleanse to remove lake bacteria and odors, a conditioning treatment to restore skin pH, and careful removal of common local debris like burrs, pine needles, and sap using pet-safe solvents. We also provide treatments for 'swimmer's tail' (limber tail syndrome), including warm compresses and gentle massage to aid recovery, so your pup is comfortable after their adventures.

What is your policy on cancellation during winter months when travel on Big Lake Road or the Parks Highway can be hazardous?

We understand that Alaskan winter travel is unpredictable. We offer a very flexible cancellation policy for weather-related issues. If you need to cancel due to poor road conditions, a winter storm warning, or whiteout conditions, we simply ask for a call or text as soon as it's safe to do so. There will be no fee, and we will happily reschedule your appointment. Your safety and your pet's safety are our top priorities.

Do you use heated, indoor drying facilities, and how do you prevent my pet from getting a shock going from the warm spa back into sub-zero temperatures?

Yes, our facility is fully heated and we use warm-air dryers to ensure your pet is completely dry and comfortable. Before departure, we take special care to acclimate pets by gradually lowering the temperature in our entryway area. We also provide complimentary protective gear for short-haired breeds, such as fleece sweaters, and we strongly recommend you warm up your vehicle first and use a insulated dog coat for the walk to your car to prevent thermal shock.

Given the prevalence of wildlife like moose and loose dogs in some Big Lake neighborhoods, how do you ensure my pet's safety when being transported to and from the vehicle?

Pet safety is paramount. Our facility has a fully enclosed, fenced-in and covered entryway. We require all pets to be leashed or in a carrier from your vehicle to our door, and a staff member will meet you at your car to provide a secure escort directly into the building. We also monitor our security cameras for any nearby wildlife or loose animals and will delay transfer until the area is clear, ensuring a safe passage every time.
