Puppies

Our puppy package is designed to educate our youngest clients. We take the necessary time to help puppies understand grooming. Keeping these sessions short and sweet will help puppies to develop positive behaviors and trusting relationships with our Stylists and Bathers. These sessions are kept short, so we ask the pet parent to stay nearby. We always try our best to complete all services in the package, there are times that the service can’t be completed. if your puppy becomes too stressed to complete a service, we will stop the service. These visits are available to start your new family member off on the right paw. A safe and happy experience will leave a lasting impression on your puppy.

Available to puppies between the ages of 2 to 5 months.

Poodles

The Professional Pet Stylist at Cali Pets have extensive knowledge of the poodle standard and personality. The owner of Cali Pets is certified by the National Dog Groomers Association of America. Tracy teaches select Cali Pets stylist to have the correct understanding of the poodle confirmation.

Poodles have many styles to choose from, a simple Kennel clip to the Continental show trim. Check out our Bio’s to see Pet Stylist that have continued education to perfect their skills and knowledge of the poodle group.

Poodles require their hair to be dried using special techniques to ensure an even trim, that will last longer. Poodles (in most trims) have shaved feet and face; both require beveling and extra time to be spent on these areas. Our prices are reflective of the difficulty related to the haircut you choose for your poodle.

Your Pet Stylist will assess your poodle and discuss a haircut that will best fit your lifestyle. We can set an upkeep schedule that will keep your poodle looking his/her best all the time and save you money too! If you would like to come by our salon with your poodle we can have a stylist meet with you for pricing.

Specialty Trims

Show haircuts that include pattern setting with hand scissoring for curly coats, hand stripping for terriers and carding for sporting/spaniels. These trims are priced on an individual basis. These haircuts may take more than one visit depending on the individual needs of each pet.
We can also help to get your dog in a show coat with conditioning treatment baths and banding.

Australian Labradoodles

Below you will find the Labradoodle “standard” as stated by the ALLA Australian Labradoodle of America.
The coat generally should not exceed 4 inches; should be even over the entire body. Can appear wavy or straight or form spirals, but should not be thick or dense, nor should it be fluffy or fuzzy. Should be a single coat; any sign of an undercoat is opposed. Ranges between fleece and wool in texture. A fleece-textured coat is soft in texture, as in the Angora goat. Can have either a straight, wavy look or a soft, spiraling, curly look. The wool coat is like lamb’s wool in texture. Should have the appearance of loose, spiraling wool, which parts easily to the skin. Should not appear too dense or too tightly curled.
Labradoodles require regular grooming. The haircut is a natural look that will require hand scissoring. The coat should not appear overly groomed. We can set an upkeep schedule that will keep your Labradoodle looking his/her best all the time and save you money too! If you would like to come by our salon with your Labradoodle, we can have a stylist meet with you for pricing.

Goldendoodles

Goldendoodles can be curly, wavy, or straight, with a long coat.

Goldendoodles hair care (in most cases) will be high maintenance. Like Poodles, Goldendoodles don’t shed profusely, they do need to be brushed regularly (at least 2 to 3 times weekly) to remove dead and dying hair and prevent matting. Bathing every four to six weeks (the life cycle of the coat) can help to keep their skin and coat stay in good condition, especially when they are brushed and combed out regularly between baths. The Goldendoodle has a thick coat that can easily become matted, Cali Pet Pros carries a wide variety of professional grooming tools to make grooming easier. Ask one of our Pet Stylist how to keep your Goldendoodle in great shape.

Your pet professional will assess your pet to find the best product for your pet’s hair/fur and skin type.  The ears will be cleaned (hair removed if needed), nails trimmed and filed, teeth brushed, gentle expression of the anal glands and 15 minutes of brush time.  The haircut session is based on how you choose to keep your pet styled I. E. longer, hand scissor trims and specialty haircuts will cost more than a shorter Clippered trim. Longer styles will require more frequent visits to the salon & regular brushing at home. Shorter styles will be easier and less expensive to maintain. Your Pet Stylist can help you choose a haircut that is right for you, your pet & your budget. Ideally, dogs should be groomed every 4 to 6 weeks depending on the style you choose for your pet. Shedding breeds (dogs with fur) have a 6-week cycle keeping them on a regular schedule will help to maintain the shedding cycle.
