The Consultation

Every appointment begins with a conversation — coat history, lifestyle, the last time a comb ran through without snagging. We part the fur in three places and read what we find.

The Work Itself
Step 02 — The Bath

Oatmeal & Chamomile. Nothing harsh.

We use a colloidal oatmeal pre-soak to loosen mat bonds before a single comb touches the coat. Chamomile rinse follows — calming for the dog, brightening for the tan.
