Frequently Asked Questions

How do Dakota County pet spas handle the heavy shedding common in double-coated breeds during our distinct seasonal changes?

Local groomers in Dakota are experts in managing the 'coat blow' that happens with seasons. We use specialized de-shedding tools and techniques, like the FURminator treatment, which are far more effective than a typical bath. We focus on removing the dense undercoat without damaging the topcoat, a crucial step for breeds like Huskies or Golden Retrievers to keep them comfortable through our hot summers and insulated for our cold winters.

With the prevalence of ticks and Lyme disease in Dakota County's parks and trails, what specific preventative grooming services do you offer?

We offer a targeted 'tick and flea prevention' package that includes a thorough skin and coat inspection, a medicated shampoo designed to kill and repel pests on contact, and a safe, post-grooming preventative application. We can also show you common tick hiding spots on your pet's body, such as ears, between toes, and under the tail, so you can be more vigilant after walks in areas like Lebanon Hills Regional Park.

My dog gets anxious during grooming; do any Dakota spas offer solutions specifically for high-stress pets?

Yes, several local spas cater to anxious pets. We offer 'calm and gentle' grooming sessions which include one-on-one attention in a quiet, separate area, slower pacing, and positive reinforcement. For pets with severe anxiety, we can coordinate with you to discuss the option of using a mobile grooming van, which provides a familiar, singular environment, or recommend a local veterinarian for mild sedatives if the situation warrants it.

What is your policy for handling a pet spa appointment during one of Dakota's severe winter snowstorms?

Our policy prioritizes safety for both our staff and clients. In the event of a severe winter storm or official weather advisory from Dakota County, we will proactively contact you to reschedule your appointment. We offer a flexible re-booking policy with no cancellation fees in these circumstances. We encourage you to check our social media or call ahead if you are unsure, as we may have adjusted our hours for the day.

Are there any local Dakota ordinances or spa policies I should be aware of regarding my pet's vaccination records?

For the safety of all pets, Dakota County pet spas require proof of up-to-date Rabies vaccination, which is also a state law. Many reputable spas will also require Bordetella (kennel cough) and DHPP (canine distemper) vaccinations. You will need to provide this records from your veterinarian before or at your first appointment. We recommend keeping a digital copy on your phone for easy access when booking services at different local groomers.
