Dog Grooming
Our professional dog grooming service covers full 'nose to tail' care for all breeds and sizes. We use quality products to maintain healthy skin and coats while implementing Tellington TTouch techniques to reduce stress. Each session includes brushing, bathing, nail clipping, and ear cleaning, tailored to individual pet needs through detailed record-keeping.
Grooming Training
We offer OCN-certified dog grooming qualifications from beginner to professional levels. Our hands-on training combines practical salon experience with TTouch methodology instruction. Courses range from one-day introductions to 25-day diploma programs, delivered in small classes to ensure personalised learning and industry readiness.
Self-Serve Wash
Our self-serve dog wash facility provides professional equipment and quality shampoos for pet owners. The service includes tubs with secure tie-downs, drying stations, and assistance from staff. No appointments are needed, and the space is designed to handle messes while keeping both pets and owners comfortable during bathing sessions.
TTouch Services
Tellington TTouch services use circular movements to reduce stress and improve canine behaviour during grooming. This technique helps reactive or nervous dogs feel more comfortable through bodywork and wraps. Our groomers apply these methods to prevent bites and create a safer, more relaxed environment for challenging pets.
Grooming Courses
We deliver comprehensive grooming education programs for career changers and industry professionals. Our curriculum combines technical skills with TTouch certification, covering safety protocols, breed-specific requirements, and business management. Graduates receive OCN qualifications and practical experience working in our busy salon environment.

First time for our little springer Bella here the other day. I was greeted by friendly staff who were very attentive .. Dawn the owner asked me exactly how I would like Bella cut and paid attention to detail. Very pleased with the result.

I went to Mutz Cutz for the first time yesterday to use the self service bathing spa. It was fantastic. What a brilliant idea to let the owners bath their own dogs.
Dawn the manager was so friendly and helpful in showing me the set up. it was also extremely clean . I will definitely be using this service from now on...no more lifting my Dog into the bath at home and hurting my back.!!! I can highly recommend this service to anyone ..
