Pet Grooming in Round Rock

Round Rock's groomers range from neighborhood salons and pet-store grooming counters to mobile vans that work from your driveway. 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.

Questions to ask

Training and experience vary, so ask how long the groomer has worked, where they trained, and whether they groom your breed often. Before the first visit:

• 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.

Microchips instead of licenses

Round Rock does not use paper pet licenses. City ordinance requires residents to microchip their cats and dogs, and pets over four months old must be chipped within 30 days of moving to Round Rock. Animal Control will microchip your pet by appointment, or you can use any veterinarian. Keep the contact details on the chip up to date. Texas law also requires rabies vaccination by four months of age, and groomers will ask for proof.

Summer heat and cold snaps

Book summer grooming early in the day, never leave a dog in a parked car, and carry small dogs across hot parking lots. In a winter freeze, make sure your dog is fully dry before it goes outside. For double-coated breeds such as huskies, shepherds and golden retrievers, ask for a de-shed rather than a shave: the undercoat protects them from heat and sunburn.
