Services at Hair of the Dog Newport
Hair of the Dog is a salon, not a van, and works to set appointment lengths: small dogs are usually finished within about two hours and large dogs within four. The Wash and Tidy covers a bath, blow dry and trims to the eyes, feet and hygiene area, and the Full Works adds a whole-body haircut. The team takes time with nervous dogs, allowing breaks, settling time and a slower pace, and it discusses any anxieties with owners beforehand. Owners name their groomer and say they have come back for years.
