how much do you pay?

[*sammy*]

i've booked sam in the groomers for a wash, dry, nail clip, trimming between pads and inside his ears. my friend noramlly does this for me as she's a groomer but has been so busy at work (not a grommers) i have decided to book him in.

the place i have booked has come recommend by a cocker owner who has her boy handstipped there.

well i phoned today and the lady was really nice and went through everything that will happen while he is there,ask what sort of coat he had etc then she said he'd be there an hour and a half!!! and it only costs £10!!!

i was wondering of you that take you dogs to the groomers how much it costs. i was really suprised it will only be £10!!! handstipping cost £22! ?

I'd say thats about right for a wash and manicure! Handstripping for £22 though... now thats a bargain!! I dont do it but groomers up here charge about £40 to £50 for that and about £25 to £30 for a normal clip. I only charge £20 cos I dont think i'm very good yet!

£22 to wash, clip, and nails done --- they charge an extra £3 to collect and deliver back home (its about 10 miles away)

[Cob-Web]

I used to pay £25 for a bath, pet clip, nails etc......once I got two, I decided to learn how to do it myself 

[Jan/Billy]

I used to pay £27 for bath, clip etc

[Aearoniel]

We were quoted £45 for a handstrip didn't ask about the rest and decided on the spot to do it myself

[Max X 2]

£35.00 for a mobile groomer (so the pre bath is a task for me) she only uses scissors though, no clippers.
Elsewhere local seemed to average £25

[shonajoy]

£30 and it's worth every penny. Bought clippers but couldn't do it and they looked awful

so i've bagged a bargain then!!! the woman who recommended them is the black cocker who is the only one i'd seen handstrpped and is gorgeous!!

We use 2 different groomers - depending on who we can get an apoointment with.  Both wash, dry, handstrip, clean ears and trim nails and charge £23 - £25.  The cheapest one even cleans anal glands, sprays with a nice doggy perfume and puts a sating bow round the neck!!!!

[mad 4 cockers]

£22 for each of mine for a mobile groomer, she clippers them & trims their nails, only down side I have to bath them the day before.

[JenSam]

Sam is going in next week to hand stripped and it costs £35.

Think you've got yourself a bargain!

[Danni n Betty]

Betty gets the full works, bathed, clipped, nails, inner ears, inbetween pads, all for £18 
TBH, I'd happily pay double that, she does a really great job!

[teapot]

Tia gets bathed and clipped/trimmed including paws,ears and feathering etc for £25 and always come home smelling gorgeous   

[LouiseAS]

Jakey gets picked up and dropped back, bathed, clipped, nails cut, ears cleaned & anal glands all for £25.  He smells lovely too when he comes home.  Cheap considering she knows he has behavioural problems and needs more time.
