We handle matted coats with care and professionalism:
- We assess the severity first
- Severe matts must be clipped for your dog's comfort (pulling causes pain)
- We check for any skin irritation underneath
- Clear communication about options and pricing before proceeding
- Advice on preventing future matting
A surcharge applies for matted coats due to extra time and specialized equipment needed. We follow Animal Welfare Act 2006 guidelines.
