Pet Grooming in Clovis

Clovis's groomers range from neighborhood salons and pet-store grooming counters to mobile vans that come to your door. A full groom usually covers a bath, haircut, nail trim and ear cleaning; most groomers also offer bath-only visits, de-shedding and quick tidy-ups between full grooms.

Your dog's license

Dog licensing in Clovis is a city requirement. Under the Clovis Municipal Code, everyone who owns or has custody of a dog over four months old must get a license for it, with fees paid annually, and the city issues the license and a tag. A license is not issued without a valid rabies vaccination certificate. A dog already licensed in another California city or county must have its license transferred within 30 days of moving into Clovis, and the dog must wear its tag whenever it is in the city and not confined indoors or in an enclosed yard. Groomers will ask for rabies proof too.

Summer heat

California's Office of Emergency Services advises never leaving pets in a car, even with the windows down, and says the inside of a car can reach temperatures in excess of 150 degrees in a matter of minutes. It suggests planning outdoor activities for the cooler parts of the day, early morning and evening, and says that if the sidewalk is too hot for you to walk barefoot, it is too hot for your pet. For double-coated breeds such as huskies and shepherds, ask your groomer for a de-shed rather than a shave, and book early-morning appointments in summer.

Before the first appointment

• Tell the groomer about your dog's health, age and temperament.
• Ask how dogs are dried; if a cage dryer is used, someone should check the dog often.
• Ask which vaccines they require, and reschedule if your dog is coughing.
• If the coat is badly matted, ask about a short clip rather than hours of brushing out.
• Ask how long the groomer has worked and whether they groom your breed often.
