Pet Grooming in Mississauga

Mississauga's's groomers range from neighbourhood salons and pet-store grooming counters to mobile vans that park outside your home. 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.

How to choose

Look at the details yourself: ask how long the groomer has worked, how tools and tables are cleaned between dogs and whether they groom your breed often. A short visit to the salon tells you a lot.

Your dog's licence

If you own a dog in Mississauga, the City says you must buy a pet licence and renew it when required, and the licence must be visible on your pet's collar. Groomers and boarding businesses will often ask for proof of rabies vaccination too.

Winter salt and summer heat

Mississauga Animal Services says that if it is too cold for you, it is also too cold for your pets, and recommends putting boots on dogs and cleaning their paws after walks to remove salt. In summer the City notes that if you cannot walk on a surface in bare feet, your dog cannot either, and suggests planning walks for cooler times of day. Ask your groomer to keep the fur between the pads trimmed, and for double-coated breeds such as huskies and shepherds, ask for a de-shed rather than a shave.

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.
