How Often Should Dogs Be Groomed?

Grooming frequency for dogs varies based on their breed, coat type and lifestyle. Here are our professional recommendations:

Curly or Doodle Coats

Every 4–6 weeks to prevent matting and maintain coat condition.

Long-Haired Breeds

Aim for every 6–8 weeks; helps avoid knots and keeps fur healthy.

Short-Haired Dogs

Bath and maintenance as needed, typically every 8–12 weeks, or after particularly active adventures.

Regular grooming supports skin health, reduces excessive shedding, and keeps your dog looking and feeling their best.

How Can I Keep My Dog's Coat
Healthy Between Appointments?

Daily brushing, especially for long or curly-coated dogs, helps avoid tangles and mats. Using a slicker brush or comb can remove loose fur and dirt, while regular checks for debris keep the coat clean.

Keep your dog's skin and fur healthy with a balanced diet, and ensure they're free from fleas or ticks. Wipe muddy paws and dry them if wet, reducing the risk of skin problems.

At Bubbly Barks, we are happy to advise you on coat care tailored to your pet's needs between dog wash services.

At Bubbly Barks, we provide a calm, quiet atmosphere with no other dogs present, allowing for complete focus and gentle care. Our experience with nervous and first-time dogs means we approach every appointment with patience, extra reassurance, and lots of cuddles. If your dog is worried about grooming, our dog grooming salon in Pontypridd is the right place for a supportive and patient experience.
