Frequently Asked Questions

How do Teller's harsh winter conditions affect grooming appointments and what special preparations do you recommend?

Our Teller location is prepared for the sub-zero temperatures and heavy snow. We recommend booking a taxi or 4x4 transport for your pet, as road conditions can be difficult. We also advise bringing your pet in a warm, insulated carrier. To protect paws from ice and road salt, we offer a paw balm treatment and can trim paw fur to prevent ice ball buildup. We use high-velocity dryers in a climate-controlled environment to ensure your pet is completely dry and warm before heading back outside.

Given Teller's remote location, what is your policy on sourcing grooming supplies and specialty pet products?

Due to our remoteness and the high cost of freight to the Seward Peninsula, we plan our inventory carefully. We stock a core selection of high-quality, hypoallergenic shampoos and basic supplies. However, for specific medicated shampoos or specialty breed products, we require advance notice so we can include them in our next bulk order from Anchorage, which may take 2-3 weeks. We encourage clients to discuss any special product needs well ahead of their appointment.

Are there any unique local wildlife or environmental hazards we should consider before our dog's spa day?

Yes, Teller's environment presents specific hazards. We frequently encounter burrs, ticks, and foxtails that can become embedded in a pet's coat during summer hikes. We perform a thorough coat inspection and can safely remove these. Additionally, many local dogs swim in the brackish waters of Grantley Harbor or the Snake River, so we offer a de-skunking-style wash to remove any lingering odors or salt residue. We always check for minor cuts or scrapes from rough terrain.

How do you handle emergency situations, like a power outage or a pet medical issue, given the limited local veterinary services?

Client and pet safety is our top priority. We have a backup generator for power outages to maintain heat and light. For medical issues, our groomers are certified in pet first aid and CPR. We maintain a direct line of communication with the closest available veterinary services in Nome and have a pre-established emergency protocol, including access to a chartered flight service if a life-threatening situation arises. We require all clients to provide an emergency contact who is locally available.

What is your policy for de-matting the thick undercoats common in sled dogs and other cold-weather breeds in Teller?

We specialize in handling the dense, double-coats of breeds like Huskies, Malamutes, and local sled dogs. We strongly advocate for humane de-matting practices. For severe matting, we may recommend a longer, scheduled 'De-matting Session' where we work in short intervals to minimize stress. In cases where the matting is too severe and causes the pet pain, we will recommend a 'shave-down' with owner consent, as this is often the kindest option. We then provide a detailed plan for regrowing a healthy coat suited for the Alaskan climate.
