Services and what each one costs

This is the whole list. There are no packages and no memberships; the only extras are de-matting at $15 a quarter-hour and a $22 flea bath charge if fleas are found.

The full board of services

Breed or custom cut

Price: $85–$155

by weight and coat

Bath and breed haircut

Two botanical washes come first, then a gentle hand fluff-dry, and only then a clip and hand-scissored shape worked to the breed standard or to the style the owner asks for. Sanitary trim, ears and a smooth nail finish are done before the dog comes off the table.

What the appointment includes

  • Two washes and a hand-dry before any blade
  • A clipped and hand-scissored shape
  • Sanitary trim, ears and nails finished

Worth knowing: Light tangles are brushed out at $15 a quarter-hour. A coat pelted to the skin is reset short instead, and that is agreed with you before it starts rather than explained afterwards.

90 to 135 minutes Best for doodles, poodles, terriers, spaniels and shih tzus on a four-to-six-week schedule.

A German shepherd sitting wrapped in a towel after a bath, ears up and mouth open.

Between haircuts

Price: $60–$110

by weight and coat

Bath, brush-out and tidy

A deep bath, a full hand-dry and a brush right through to the skin, then a tidy of the face, the feet and the rear rather than a shape over the whole body. Nothing comes off the length, so the coat stays clean and comfortable on a four-week rotation.

What the appointment includes

  • A deep bath, a hand-dry and a brush-out
  • Face, feet and rear tidied
  • Nails checked and smoothed if needed

Worth knowing: No body clip or scissored shape is included here — that is the bath and breed haircut, from $85.

60 to 90 minutes Best for a coat kept brushed at home that needs washing and tidying between haircuts.

Coat restoration

Price: $90–$145

by weight and coat

Double-coat de-shedding

A soak in an omega-rich conditioner that loosens a double coat, a warm-air blowout that lifts the dead undercoat, and then careful line-combing in sections until what is coming out is only coat that was already dead.

What the appointment includes

  • An omega conditioner soak
  • A warm-air blowout through to the skin
  • Line-combed until nothing loose is left

Worth knowing: A double coat is never shaved here unless a vet prescribes it in writing: it insulates against heat as well as cold, and this is the treatment that exists instead.

Timed to the coat Best for huskies, shepherds, goldens, corgis and labs blowing their undercoat.

Shears, drawn. A straight blade and a curved blade leave a different line on the same coat, which is why more than one pair sits within reach of the table.

Cats only

Price: $95–$140

by weight and coat

Quiet-hour cat groom

A bath, a full comb-out and a lion or sanitary trim for cats, kept to Tuesday and Thursday mornings when no dogs are in the salon. Mats are released slowly by hand, and the pace is set by the cat rather than by the clock.

What the appointment includes

  • A gentle bath and a quiet dry
  • A full comb-out, mats released by hand
  • A lion cut or a sanitary trim
  • The next visit dated before you leave

Worth knowing: No sedation is used. A cat that is too stressed to continue is stopped and the owner is told plainly, not discovered halfway through it.

60 to 90 minutes Best for Persians, Maine Coons and any long-haired cat that mats faster than it can be brushed.

Between grooms

Price: $28

Nail Dremel, ears and paw balm

Nails filed smooth with a Dremel on all four feet, dewclaws included, ears cleaned and looked into, and a soothing balm worked into dry or cracked pads. It is added to the end of a groom, or arranged on its own in the weeks between two of them.

What the appointment includes

  • All four feet and any dewclaws, filed smooth
  • Ears cleaned and checked
  • Balm for the paw pads

Worth knowing: It is a trim and a look, not treatment — nothing is put into an ear here, and anything that needs a veterinary surgeon is named as such.

About 15 minutes Best for nails that click on the floor before a haircut is due, and for nail-shy dogs.

First visit

Price: $52

Puppy’s first gentle groom

A first groom for a puppy under six months, built on treats and calm handling. A warm bath, the dryer on its lowest setting, paws held, nail tips taken off and the face, feet and sanitary area tidied, one step at a time and at whatever pace the puppy sets.

What the appointment includes

  • Treats and a warm bath
  • A low-speed dry and paw handling
  • Nail tips and a face, feet and sanitary tidy

Worth knowing: A puppy that has had enough is stopped and finished another day, and the price does not change for it.

45 to 60 minutes Best from 14 to 16 weeks, once the puppy vaccinations are complete.

A folded towel, drawn. It comes out warm and goes on before the hand dryer, which is where most of the water actually leaves a coat.

Before the table

How getting in touch works

  1. Describe the coat

    A message says whether it is a dog or a cat, the breed or mix, how the coat is kept now, roughly when it was last groomed and which service looks closest. A photograph is welcome and never required.

  2. Read the reply

    A groomer answers by email during opening hours, or by phone if a number is left, names the service that fits, gives the price range and says how long the appointment needs.

  3. Agree a time

    The time is fixed in that reply, or through the Book action if a slot is being chosen directly. Nothing earlier in the sequence holds an appointment.

When a service is not the right one

A groomer with the coat in front of them will say when a chosen service is the wrong fit and name the one that is, before starting. That happens at the table and it happens in the reply to a message. Nothing gets started on a service that will not work, and nothing gets charged for a service that was not carried out.

Bramble & Paw Pet Grooming does not carry out veterinary treatment, does not sedate, does not use flea dips or cage dryers, and does not shave a double coat to stop it shedding. Anything that belongs with a veterinary surgeon is named as such and the appointment stops there.

Talk to the salon

Not sure which service it is?

Describe the pet and the coat in a message and a groomer names the service and the price range before anything is arranged. The reply comes during opening hours.

A short note when a price or an hour changes

Holiday hours, a groomer joining or leaving, a price that moves. Two or three notes a year and nothing else.
