Grooming is an important part of pet care. Depending on the breed, age, and health of your pet, grooming may even need to be a part of you and your pet’s daily routine. Many breeds require less grooming than this, but regular grooming always helps to keep your pet healthy and comfortable.

Unfortunately we don't currently offer a grooming service, however we can still offer hydrobaths and nail clipping for your pooch.

Grooming

Some breeds don’t shed their hair effectively (eg. Poodles) and require grooming by a professional every 6-8 weeks. Long haired cats can particularly benefit from regular brushing as it helps prevent the formation of knots on the skin and hairballs in the stomach.

  • Happy Hounds on 08 9192 6170 or 0425 215 480

Fluffy Puppy

If your pet finds the experience  traumatic or you have a very matted cat then Broome vets will offer a clip under sedation service.

Broome vets also has a hydrobath and offers a dog washing service, including a tick and flea rinse. Please ring to book.

Grooming at Home

We encourage you to also engage in regular brushing with your pet at home. There are numerous benefits of regular brushing, for example:

  • Decreased chance of skin problems
  • Optimal skin cleanliness and comfort for you and your pet
  • Improved monitoring of health issues like cuts, heat, swelling, lameness, or changes in temperament.
  • Enhanced behavioural routines with obedient submission during grooming periods
  • Closer bonding with your pet through regular contact

Grooming supplies can be purchased in our pet store area in reception.
