Frequently Asked Questions

How do Walloon Lake pet spas handle dogs that are anxious after a day of boating or swimming in the lake?

Many local pet spas are experienced with dogs who have been active on the lake. We use calming techniques such as gentle, quiet handling, positive reinforcement with treats, and may offer a soothing oatmeal or aloe vera bath to relieve any skin irritation from lake water. For highly anxious pets, we can schedule appointments during quieter hours to ensure a more relaxed experience.

My dog often gets 'swimmer's tail' from cold Walloon Lake water. Do your groomers have experience with this condition?

Yes, our groomers in the Walloon Lake area are very familiar with limber tail syndrome, commonly known as 'swimmer's tail.' We are trained to recognize the symptoms and will provide a very gentle grooming session, avoiding any stress on the tail area. We recommend warm (not hot) baths and can discuss after-grooming care tips, such as rest and limited activity, to help your pet recover.

Given Walloon Lake's seasonal population, how far in advance should I book a grooming appointment for my pet during the peak summer months?

Due to the high demand from both residents and summer visitors, we strongly recommend booking your grooming appointment at least 3-4 weeks in advance for the peak season (Memorial Day through Labor Day). For holiday weekends like the Fourth of July, even more lead time is advisable. We recommend scheduling your pet's pre-arrival spa day when you finalize your own summer travel plans.

What specific de-shedding or coat treatments do you recommend for Northern Michigan breeds like Huskies or Malamutes during the summer shed?

For double-coated breeds common in our region, we offer a specialized de-shedding treatment that includes a high-velocity blow-out to remove the dense undercoat, followed by a de-shedding shampoo and conditioner. This process is crucial during the 'blow coat' season in early summer to help your pet stay cool and comfortable. We also provide tips on managing the infamous 'Michigan tumbleweeds' of pet hair in your home or cottage.

Do you offer any mobile grooming services for pets staying at vacation rentals around Walloon Lake where it's difficult to transport a pet?

While we are a stationary salon, we understand the unique challenges of vacationing with pets. We do not currently offer mobile grooming, but we are centrally located in the Walloon Lake village for easy access. We are happy to provide recommendations for local pet taxi services and can work with rental property managers to help coordinate drop-off and pick-up if you are without transportation for the day.
