Included in all grooming pricing: Each dog receives a thorough cost evaluation to determine their skin/coat needs. They then get two baths and conditioned, if necessary. Ears are cleaned, nails are cut and we groom the body as per customers request. Cage Free Optional! Of course, there are other grooming salons in Long Branch, but we are not just another salon. Glad Wags Grooming Salon has a team of professionals who do everything to provide our clients and their furry animals, both dogs and cats, the best service equipped with tender loving care (TLC) for the ultimate spa day! We specialize in working with senior pets with special needs. Cat grooming by special appointment! At Glad Wags, we use only the highest quality shampoo. We have state of the art equipment, an open atmosphere offering a cage free option making your pets visit comfortable. We offer special spa treatments including but not limited to: face and paw whitening; facial scrubbing; paw pad; flea treatments; and deep conditioning of coats. Before the grooming process even begins, we evaluate each dogs coat to determine specific needs. During an average grooming session, we clean ears - pluck the hair inside the ears, if necessary - wash each dog twice and then condition their coat. We dry each dog with our high velocity dryer - WE DO NOT CAGE DRY - which removes all layers of the dead coat; leaving the client with a shed-free dog. Finally, we shave the paw pads, clip the nails, shave the sanitary area and groom the dogs body to the clients liking. We also do a maintenance groom (a bath & trim) for dogs that do not need the body groomed or shaved. It includes everything a full groom does, except we do not groom the body! A third option we offer is for dogs that only require a bath (without needing a groom) which includes nails clipped and ears cleaned. Ask about our Doggie Day Care and our self-service by appointment. We also have convenient parking for our clients so your pets have an easy entrance and exit from our shop! We schedule by appointment to suit your needs. If there are any questions, please feel free to call the salon: (732) 483-9003!
