Chinese crested powderpuff

Chinese crested powderpuff: full grooming every 4–6 weeks. Between visits: bath (no haircut) every 2–3 weeks.

Daily, 5–10 minutes: slicker brush, then a metal comb. Part the coat into sections and comb each one from the skin to the tips, not just the surface: mats start at the skin where you can’t see them. Check behind the ears, in the armpits, under the collar and in the groin.

Don’t cut or pull them out at home: it hurts and damages the coat. Bring your pet to us: small mats we gently work out; a heavily felted coat we clip short and it grows back. To keep mats away: daily, 5–10 minutes: slicker brush, then a metal comb.

Hardly at all.

From four months: once all vaccinations are done and two weeks have passed since the last one. Before that, it’s up to the breeder, or to you at home, to get the puppy used to the comb and the bath.

On a dog’s or cat’s first visit to our salon, Royal SPA, full grooming (including hand stripping) and cat services are 20% cheaper. A dog bath without a haircut, nails, mat removal and the individual service are not discounted. No code needed: the front desk applies it at payment. There is a second discount too: −10% on the next visit when you book it in the salon right after the service. Discounts don’t combine.
