Frequently asked questions
Find answers to common questions about dog grooming practices, our specialized services for poodles and doodles, and what makes Doodgroomtn the right choice for your furry friend. We are dedicated to a grooming experience that prioritizes your dog's well-being and your peace of mind.
What's the number one question you get asked about dog grooming?
“How often does my dog need to be groomed?” Most dog owners want to do the right thing but aren’t sure what their dog’s coat actually needs—especially with poodles and doodles. The answer depends on coat type, length, and home maintenance, but regular grooming is key to preventing matting, discomfort, and skin issues. We take the time to explain what schedule works best for each dog, so grooming stays stress-free and manageable for both pets and owners.
What makes Doodgroomtn's approach to dog grooming special or different?
DoodGroomTN takes a calm, personalized, and specialized approach to dog grooming. We focus exclusively on poodles and doodles, allowing us to truly understand their coats, maintenance needs, and sensitivities. Rather than rushing dogs through an assembly line, we prioritize quality over speed. Each groom is tailored to the individual dog—its coat condition, comfort level, and lifestyle—so the experience is as low-stress and positive as possible. We emphasize coat health, proper maintenance, and gentle handling, helping dogs look great while staying comfortable and happy long-term. Our goal is not just a beautiful groom today, but a healthier coat and a better grooming experience over time.
What's a common worry or fear people have about leaving their dog with a groomer?
One of the most common fears dog owners have is whether their dog will be safe, comfortable, and treated kindly while they’re away. Many dogs are anxious about grooming, and it’s hard for owners to hand their dog over and hope they’re being handled with patience and care. We understand that trust is a big deal. That’s why at DoodGroomTN we focus on calm, compassionate handling, never rushing dogs or forcing them through a stressful process. Our goal is for both dogs and their owners to feel confident, comfortable, and at ease.
What should customers know before scheduling their first appointment?
Before scheduling your first appointment, it’s important to know that we specialize exclusively in poodles and doodles and focus on calm, low-stress grooming. Regular grooming and at-home maintenance play a big role in your dog’s comfort and coat health. During your first visit, we’ll assess your dog’s coat condition and talk through grooming options, maintenance schedules, and realistic expectations—especially if matting is present. We take a quality-over-speed approach, so appointment times may vary based on your dog’s needs. This allows us to work patiently and safely without rushing your dog. Most importantly, we want this to be a positive experience for both you and your dog. Clear communication helps us ensure the best possible groom.
