A quick refresh between full grooms
Dog bath and brush in Fort Lauderdale, no haircut needed.
A bath and brush skips the haircut and keeps the focus on a clean, fluffy coat. It works well for short-coated dogs, and for longer coats between scheduled grooms after a day at the water.
What sets a bath and brush quote.
If your dog swims in a canal, rolls in the yard or comes back from a pond walk muddy, a bath is the sensible reset.
- Size and coat length control water use, drying time and brushing effort.
- Shedding breeds may need a de-shedding rinse, which can add to the cost.
- Specialty shampoos for sensitive skin are typically optional and priced separately.
- Nail trims and ear cleaning are sometimes included and sometimes added, so ask what the base price covers.
- Heavy mud or tangles can push a quote toward a full groom.
- Self-serve tubs cost less but you do the work and the cleanup.

Before you book.
How is a bath and brush different from a full groom?
A bath and brush cleans and brushes the coat but skips the haircut. A full groom includes trimming, usually plus nails and ears.
How often can I bathe my dog?
Many dogs do fine with a bath every few weeks. Your vet or groomer can adjust that for skin issues or very active outdoor dogs.
Should I brush my dog before a bath?
Yes, a quick brush removes loose hair and knots. Water tightens mats, so tangled coats are better handled by a groomer first.
Is a salt-water swim a reason to book a bath?
Rinsing at the beach or boat ramp helps, but salt and sand left in the coat can dry and irritate skin. A proper bath within a day or two is worth booking.
