Coats that tangle if you let them
Doodle and curly coat grooming in Fort Lauderdale.
Doodles, poodles, bichons and other curly coats grow constantly and tangle close to the skin. In a humid, coastal county such as Broward, that coat needs careful brushing and a haircut plan you can keep up with.
Why curly coat grooming costs what it does.
Because this work takes longer and requires more skill, it sits at the upper end of grooming prices.
- The base price reflects extra time at the table, not just a larger dog.
- A coat brushed every few days costs less than one that needs de-matting.
- Shorter practical cuts are easier to maintain, while longer teddy-bear styles need frequent visits.
- Some groomers charge a separate fee when dematting takes more than a few minutes.
- Face, feet and sanitary trims are usually included, but ask to be sure.
- Regular six-week visits tend to be cheaper over a year than waiting until the coat is matted.

Why do doodles mat so quickly here?
Their fine, curly hair twists on itself, and damp air plus swimming or wet-weather walks speed that up. Brushing to the skin every few days is the best prevention.
What if my dog is already badly matted?
A groomer may need to clip the coat short to avoid pain, and a fee for that work is common. Describe the condition honestly when you ask for a quote.
What haircut is easiest to maintain for a doodle?
A moderate, even length of about an inch or two is a popular low-maintenance choice. Your groomer can recommend one for your dog's coat.
Can I do the brushing between visits myself?
Yes, with a slicker brush and a metal comb that reaches the skin. Ask the groomer to show you the technique.
