Frequently Asked Questions

Given Kirkwood's proximity to the Chesapeake Bay, do your grooming packages include treatments to remove or protect against burrs and ticks from local trails?

Yes, many of our grooming packages are specifically designed for the local environment. We offer a 'Trail Tamer' treatment that includes a thorough brush-out to remove burrs and a natural, soothing oatmeal bath to help with skin irritation from trailside plants. We also provide a safe, topical tick repellent application upon request, especially helpful after visits to areas like the nearby Lums Pond State Park.

How do you handle dogs with high anxiety during grooming, and do you offer any calming solutions popular in the Kirkwood area?

We specialize in low-stress grooming for anxious pets. Our groomers are trained in gentle handling techniques, and we offer a quiet, separate station away from the main salon bustle. For pets that need extra help, we can use calming aids like Adaptil pheromone sprays or Thundershirts. We also collaborate with local Kirkwood veterinarians who can provide pre-grooming sedation recommendations if necessary for extreme cases.

Are there any specific de-shedding treatments you recommend for the heavy seasonal shedding common with local Labrador Retrievers and Golden Retrievers?

Absolutely. We offer a specialized 'Delaware De-Shed' package that is extremely popular with local Labrador and Golden Retriever owners. This service includes a high-velocity blow-out to remove the dense undercoat, followed by a de-shedding shampoo and conditioner treatment, and finishes with a thorough tool-based de-shedding process. This significantly reduces the amount of fur shed in your home for 4-6 weeks.

Do you offer any grooming services tailored for small breeds or seniors that can't easily travel to larger cities like Wilmington?

Yes, catering to our local community is our priority. We provide 'Pampered Paws' grooming sessions specifically for small breeds and senior pets, which feature shorter appointment times, extra-comfortable bedding, and gentle handling. We understand the challenge of traveling far for grooming, so we've designed our services to be a convenient and stress-free solution right here in Kirkwood for pets of all ages and sizes.

With Kirkwood's hard water, what kind of shampoo and conditioner do you use to prevent our pets' coats from getting dry and brittle?

This is a very common concern for Kirkwood pet owners. We use only premium, professional-grade shampoos and conditioners that are specifically formulated to counteract the effects of mineral-heavy hard water. Our products are pH-balanced for pet skin and contain moisturizing agents like shea butter and oatmeal that help seal the hair shaft, preventing dryness and leaving coats soft, shiny, and manageable despite our local water quality.
