Most owners of cats or dogs with longer fur opt to take their pet to the groomers once every 4-6 weeks, while shorter-haired breeds may only visit every 8-12 weeks.
How often should dogs be groomed?
A short cut can last a dog two to three months, but if your groomer leaves more than an inch of fur on your dog at a cut, you should get your dog groomed every four to six weeks to prevent matting. The same goes for dogs with curly and wavy coats.
Do all dogs need to go to the groomer?
It's a common misconception that only dogs with a longer coat, or show dogs need to be professionally groomed. This couldn't be farther from the truth. In fact, each and every dog should get groomed by a professional groomer every 4-6 weeks. This will not only help them look their best, but also to feel their best.
How long should my dog be at the groomer?
The quick answer is: It will take an average of 1 hour to groom your dog. If he has a short and low-maintenance coat you may be done in as little as 20 minutes. If you own a breed with a more difficult coat or a large breed, it may take up to 2 hours to groom your dog.
