Wag 'N Wash offers a service that is Extra-Special!  Service.  See below!!
Mission Statement

To provide a professional, clean, stress-free environment where pet owners can bathe and dry their pets with ease and efficiency.

Service Description

Washing a dog can be a messy business especially in cramped city apartments and even in your bathroom. Wag 'N wash will now take the hassle out of cleaning the mess. No more chiropractic visits, plumbing bills and cleaning hair from bathroom stalls. You just bring the dog in and we clean up the mess.

And it will be inexpensive to keep your dog clean…Self-service or do it yourself bathing is only $17 for the first half hour and $6.00 for each additional quarter hour after that. Nail clipping, trimming and flea or medicated shampoos are extra.  

Self-service will  require an appointment at the new location.  You must call in advance so we can schedule you in the book.  Nail clipping will not require an appointment.  

Full-service Grooming

We also offer full-service grooming. We do not use cage dryers.  All dogs are dried by hand with our professional high velocity  or fluff driers.   Every pet grooming includes a therapeutic massaging bath with our Jet Wash, nail trimming, ear cleaning, pads trimmed, medicated shampoo when necessary, cologne, bandanna or bow.  Pricing is based on breed, behavior and condition of coat when pet is checked in.  

Please note:  our service is highly specialized. We are not an assembly line grooming shop which means that your pet is given an appointment time and we guarantee your pet can be picked up within two to three hours of drop off.  We do 7-10 dogs per day; your dog is very rarely kept in a cage but on a counter where he can feel comfortable albeit that is why our prices are higher than the average grooming establishment.    We regard all animals as a top priority and we pamper them as if they were our very own.  This should make you feel comfortable with our services .  "If you want us to baby sit your dog all day, we are not the place for you."   If you are looking for a professional and caring groom for your pet, please do call us for an appointment; we won't disappoint you.

Please be advised we do charge accordingly for coats that are severely matted. We also advise you that de-matting is now $60 per hour plus the cost of your pet's haircut.  De-matting can, in many cases,  be painful, inhumane, and labor-intensive, and we don't like to do it ,so please keep your pet's coat maintained between grooming appointments. Please note that we will always give you the option of a) dematting or b) shaving to save significant dollars and will do as you wish before we ever begin grooming your pet.

We will require pet's vaccination history and veterinarian contact before setting a scheduled appointment time. We will call your vet to verify that your pet is up to date on his or her shots.  This is for the safety of the pet stylist, your pet and other pets in our salon.

Special Services 

We offer a wide variety of special services including:  Medicated shampoos, tooth brushing, Hot Oil Treatments for dry and lifeless coats, nail filing, herbal flea dips, nail dremeling at a cost of $12.00, our special 3-Step De-Skunking Process and  The FURminator De-shedding Program.  

                                                           

                      

Improve the appearance of your pet and your environment by requesting the 4-Step FURminator Shedless Treatment available at Wag 'N Wash. We are an authorized facility and  our staff is trained and skilled at using this program on your pet. This is a specialized anti-shedding treatment that dramatically reduces the mess and clean up of unwanted pet hair.  The secret to the treatment is a special de-shedding tool designed to stop the shedding where it begins in the undercoat of your pet.  Studies have shown the FURminator treatment can reduce shedding in pets from 4-6 weeks (shedding periods may vary depending on the breed and health of your pet)..And this treatment has been endorsed by veterinarians who understand the importance of healthy skin and coat.  Please call for an appointment today and understand that this service is in addition to the price of your pet's regular groom.  

Spay/Neuter Information

We can help you if you are looking for low cost spay/neuter for your pet.  Wag 'N Wash advocates spaying and neutering to reduce the amount of unwanted pets dropped at shelters everyday and to protect the health of your pet.    Ample info is available at the info table located at the entrance to the shop.  Low cost spay/neuter applications from Friends of Animals are available for the asking. 

  2008 Policies for Grooming Customers

In order to book a grooming appointment with us, we ask our customers to adhere to several strict policies. A) If you are going to be more than 15 minutes late for your appt., please be so kind as to call, otherwise we may schedule another pet in your timeslot.  If you are more than a half hour late we have the right to refuse to groom your pet. B) We are courteous enough to notify you of your impending appt. 48 hours in advance, therefore, if you have to cancel, again please be so kind as to notify us immediately.  Cancellation after 48 hours or lack thereof will result in a No Show. C) After one no-show, a payment of $25 will be added to your bill in addition to your pet's regular grooming fee.  After an accumulation of two no shows, a non-refundable deposit  will be required in order to schedule your pet for grooming and payment for one of the missed and/or payment for the full groom will be required.  You must understand, when you don't show up, we lose income and the opportunity to book another customer's dog who may be in dire need of grooming.  We lose income and we have bills to pay just like our customers.  We are also standing around waiting for our next appointment.  This is not fair to us or to our other customers. There is also a $30 fee for any returned checks.

We do understand that emergencies arise and even the best planned schedules are often disrupted by unforeseen emergencies, however, we are kind, loving and respectful to your pets and we expect the same courtesy.  We prefer to spend our time pampering your pets not enforcing policies, but we are running a business like any other and therefore, we must make these policies available to all our customers.  When an appointment is booked at least a week in advance, you will receive a policy statement in the mail along with an appt. card confirming your pet's appointment.
