Less Shedding Fast. Guaranteed.

Grooming for Double Coated Dogs.

 

Deshedding a double-coated dog before winter sounds counterintuitive (“don’t they need that coat?”), but done properly, it actually helps their coat work the way it’s supposed to.
We’re not taking the coat away—we’re removing what shouldn’t be there so the coat can actually keep your dog warmer this winter.

​

Right now, before winter hits, we remove the dead, compacted undercoat that causes:

  • Constant hair all over your house

  • That “dog smell” that won’t go away

  • They stay damp and cold under a packed coat.​

  • A proper deshed removes loose, dead hair so the coat can regulate temperature efficiently—keeping your dog warm and dry.

  • Prevents matting (which reduces warmth).

  •  Helps the skin stay healthy through winter.

 

​​

✅ What You Get

✔ Full undercoat removal (not just a surface groom)
✔ High-velocity de-shed + coat reset process

✔ Noticeably less shedding at home
✔ A lighter, cleaner, more comfortable dog

​

Deshed grooming includes bath and blow-dry, nails and ears, under-paw clipping, sanitary clip, and scissor tidy if required.

In addition, full blowout, brushing, and deshed.

​

Suitable for all double-coated dogs such as Retrievers, collies, Shepherds, Corgis, Spitz, Huskies, Labradors, Long Coat Chihuahuas, etc.

​

💥 Try It Risk-Free

If you don’t notice a significant reduction in loose shedding within 48 hours,
we’ll rework the coat at no extra cost.

​

⏳ Why You Need To Act Now

  • Pre-winter is the worst time for coat compaction

  • Waiting = thicker undercoat = more hair, more cost later

  • We only take a limited number of deshed clients per week..​​

5 Reasons your Double Coated dog needs deshedding before winter begins.
 
Deshedding a double-coated dog before winter sounds counterintuitive (“don’t they need that coat?”), but done properly, it actually helps their coat work the way it’s supposed to.
We’re not taking the coat away—we’re removing what shouldn’t be there so the coat can actually keep your dog warmer this winter.

Here’s why it matters:

1. Keeps the coat insulating properly

Double-coated breeds rely on a balance between the soft undercoat and the outer guard hairs. When dead undercoat builds up, it traps air unevenly and blocks proper insulation.
A proper deshed removes loose, dead hair so the coat can regulate temperature efficiently—keeping your dog warm and dry.

2. Prevents matting (which reduces warmth)

Packed, shedding undercoat can turn into dense mats, especially with moisture from rain or damp conditions.
Matted fur:
Holds cold moisture against the skin
Reduces airflow
Actually makes your dog colder, not warmer.

3. Helps the skin stay healthy through winter.

A clogged coat can trap:
Dirt
Dander
Moisture
That creates the perfect environment for irritation, hot spots, or infections—more common in winter when coats stay damp longer.

4. Reduces excessive shedding indoors.

Double-coated dogs often “blow coat” seasonally. If you don’t remove that loose coat before winter, it ends up all over your house instead of coming out in a controlled groom.

5. Improves drying time after getting wet

A coat full of dead undercoat holds water like a sponge. After a deshed:
Water sheds off better
Drying is faster
Less chance of that damp dog smell lingering
,
Note: We’re not taking the coat away—we’re removing what shouldn’t be there so the coat can actually keep your dog warmer this winter.

From $80 depending on coat condition and size.
