The doghouse

Cost of grooming/cut

We have recently moved house & I have put off getting our terrier clipped until I had a recommendation or two about where to go.

So I contacted the recommended lady & have been quoted £35. We have only ever paid between £20-25, so I was a bit ð??§. But he was last done in the summer & we were living up north, so am I just behind the curve?!

He's a border (we've never had him stripped), so he's obviously pretty small.

I'm 'oop north' and have been quoted £35 for a strip but she actually gets clipped for £30 instead as the groomer said she'd never been stripped properly and at her age (8) she wouldn't want to put her through it for the first time... So, depending where you are, seems about right to me!

I am in the North and I pay £32 for my Bichon which I imagine is a more time consuming job than a Border Terrier

I'm Midlands and I pay between £28 and £35 depending on how long it has been since last cut. It is the more expensive groomers though I'd pay £10 less if we went further into town but Eric's had one bad experience already and so we will stick with the one he is happy going to.
