At select Hollywood Feed locations, we have on-staff groomers who offer a variety of services from a simple bath and brush, to an all over full cut and style. Grooming appointments are made by phone or in person at one of our grooming locations. Some locations have self-service wash stations that are stocked with everything you need to freshen up your pup without needing an appointment.
Unlike humans, dogs don't need daily baths. bathing too frequently can strip a dog's skin of its natural oils, drying it out and causing itchiness. When you do bathe them, always use a high-quality, sulfate and paraben free shampoo.
You can't help if your dog is smelly, gets in something bad, or is just covered in dirt. But if he doesn't smell too strongly, consider rinsing him with water, then brushing his coat. It will give most dogs the splash of freshness they need.
Oily coats may need bathing more often. Short-haired breeds with smooth coats need less frequent baths. Breeds such as Labrador Retrievers and Goldens should be bathed less often to preserve their natural oils and water repellent coats. Breeds with double coats need tons of brushing, but fewer baths.
The fact is, bathing helps maintain your dog's skin and coat and keep them parasite free. Bathing a small dog isn't always quite the chore that bathing a larger dog can be, but at Hollywood Feed we kept all shapes and sizes in mind with our Self-Serve Dog Wash Stations. Whether 15 lbs. or 120 lbs., the door and stairs make it easy to load your dog in the tubs.
We provide everything you need; shampoo, conditioner, towels, brushes, and even blow dryers. And it gets even better...that mess of dog hair and dirt that's left? Don't worry about it! We'll take care of all of that for you!
