Request an AppointmentGrooming That Supports Your Dog’s Health
Regular professional grooming is an important part of your dog’s overall wellness routine. A clean, well-maintained coat prevents painful matting, reduces shedding, and supports healthier skin. Routine nail trims prevent overgrowth that can affect your dog’s gait and joint health. Ear cleaning reduces the risk of infection — especially in floppy-eared breeds prone to moisture buildup.
Because our groomers work alongside our veterinary team, they’re also well-positioned to notice changes in your dog’s skin, coat, ears, or body that may warrant a closer look from one of our doctors. It’s a level of attentiveness you won’t find at a standalone grooming salon.
Whether your dog has a short, low-maintenance coat or needs regular breed-specific haircuts, our team tailors every grooming session to your dog’s individual needs. We want every dog to leave feeling refreshed, comfortable, and happy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dog Grooming
What dog grooming services does DPVH offer?
Our grooming services include bathing, brushing, blow-drying, haircuts, nail trimming, ear cleaning, and more. We tailor each session to your dog’s coat type, breed, and individual needs. For a full list of services and pricing, see our grooming menu above or call us at (513) 791-8550.
How often should my dog be professionally groomed?
Grooming frequency depends on your dog’s breed and coat type. Dogs with longer or thicker coats typically need grooming every 4–8 weeks to prevent matting and maintain coat health. Short-coated breeds may need grooming less frequently. Visit our Recommended Dog Grooming Schedule page for breed-specific guidance.
Why is regular grooming important for my dog’s health?
Regular grooming prevents painful mat formation, reduces shedding, promotes healthy skin and coat condition, keeps ears clean and infection-free, and maintains proper nail length to support joint health and normal gait. It also gives groomers the opportunity to notice skin changes, lumps, or other physical abnormalities that may need veterinary attention — something our clinic-based groomers are especially well equipped to do.
Is it safe to have my dog groomed at a veterinary clinic?
Yes — and there are real advantages to it. Our grooming team works alongside our veterinary staff, which means if something concerning is noticed during grooming (a lump, skin irritation, ear issue), it can be flagged and addressed promptly by one of our doctors. It’s a level of integrated care you won’t find at a standalone grooming salon.
Can I combine my dog’s grooming appointment with a veterinary visit?
Absolutely. We’d be happy to coordinate a grooming session with a wellness exam, vaccine update, or other veterinary services on the same day. It’s a convenient way to take care of multiple things at once and minimize the number of trips for your dog. Just let our team know when you call to book.
Do you groom dogs of all sizes and breeds?
Yes. Our groomers have experience working with dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to large dogs, and with a wide variety of coat types — including double coats, curly coats, wiry coats, and long-flowing coats. We customize every grooming session to suit your dog’s specific needs and temperament.
What should I do to prepare my dog for their grooming appointment?
Try to ensure your dog has had a bathroom break before the appointment. If your dog has any known sensitivities, fears, or behavioral quirks around grooming, let us know in advance — our team is experienced at working gently with anxious dogs. If your dog’s coat is significantly matted, a pre-appointment call is helpful so we can plan the best approach for their comfort.
