We had a mobile groomer come to the house and do all 3 boys.

Mobile groomers are expensive!!!

Never had a mobile groomer but the drop off groomers too are expensive.

Doug is looking fine as well as the other two I’m sure.

Our Vet has a pet Hotel service and is a 100 yards across the street from our house.

They used to have a grooming service but they couldn't keep any groomers. They kept quitting because they were slammed with business 5 days a week 8 hours a day with no end in sight. They had to bathe all the animals before pick up and do the grooming for clients like me.

Everybody they hired just burned out, so they just stopped the grooming services. They still have to give the animals a bath before pickup but not groom between pickups.

$540 for 3 Pugs with tip for the works.

Nail trim
Ear cleaning
Anal expression
Bath and blow dry.

We are going to do some more exploring to see if we can find a cheaper alternative...

This was the first time we tried the company. She did a good job but dang, $540!

Ours receive all the above plus a trim (Golden Retirevers) and as I recall it runs me around $100 each. They get this treatment every six weeks. Gotta stay on top of long haired dogs for sure.
