Hunt Valley Dog Grooming Services

Hunt Valley dog grooming is one of the specialties at Hunt Valley Animal Hospital. Just like people, dogs need to be cleaned and groomed on a regular basis to stay healthy and able to enjoy life to the fullest. Hunt Valley dog grooming is especially important in the summer months. Pet hair, like people’s hair, tends to grow faster in the warmer months. Most dogs need to be groomed every few months, but this may increase in the summer months. It will also depend on the type and breed of your dog, and your preference.

Many people wonder when they should give their dogs their first grooming. We suggest that you start your dog off early, taking him or her for their first grooming in the first 3-4 months of their life. Visiting a dog groomer may not come naturally to your pet, and the earlier you start your dog off learning what the grooming process is like, the faster they will learn and the easier it will be for everyone concerned in the long term.


First Dog Grooming Visit

Your pet’s first visit to our Hunt Valley dog groomer may only involve a bath and a minor trim. What takes place in the session will depend on what your pet is comfortable with. Further services such a nail trimming will be added as your dog gets used to being in our animal vet clinic. This is why it is good to start your pet out early—so he can get used to the sounds and smells of the animal hospital.

Kathleen Muth is our designated dog groomer, and works with compassion and professionalism to ensure a positive experience for your pet. She will also be happy to answer any questions you have about the process prior to your visit. Kathleen, or any member of our excellent staff can be reached at 410-645-9191.
