| Wow that seems like a lot to me! Maybe location has something to do with it, but I only paid $30!

Donating YT 10K Club Member | 40 - 45 is the going rate here for grooming with a haircut. A simple bath with simple grooming is less. And yes it all depends on where you live.

| I think it depends because, out here many of the groomers charge more for pups cause they take longer. Plus some charge more for longer hair or if they have mats. The norm out here seems to be around $45 and that is for a bath, brush, nails, glads, and some trimming ( around bum, eyes and ears). I think for $60 you may as well buy the clippers and do it yourself. once we move I found a place that will do weekly or every other week grooms... I would like to keep them in full coat and it could be expensive but she gives a discount the more you go.

| I pay 70.00 per baby - Tip not included....The pet mobile grooming service. I think it's worth every penny to have them groomed right in my driveway.

| That is about what we pay. I love our groomer and she is so good with Bella and so it's worth it to me.

| I just had a mobile groomer come out and do mine and it was 37.50 each. Now that was not a full cut. It was bath, and what I call a detail. I was very pleased. She won't come out for less than 75. With a full hair cut she said it would run about 100 for both (50 each). It was definitely worth it for them and me not to have the stress of leaving them somewhere. I would use her again for sure.

YT 2000 Club Member | I dont think they charge more for a puppy.. at least not anyone I took my dogs too.. matter of fact, the one groomer that I use charged less for my toy poodle and Tucker when they were smaller. I think it depends on what you want done and where you live.. puppy cuts are usually cheaper than getting the "works" done. I pay 20 per dog usually because I keep my dogs shaved down, if I only wanted them bathed and a trim it would be 15.00 but I live out in the middle of nowhere and that is the going rate for my area.

| Yea thats the thing about it. I would pay the 60 if he was bigger but he's small. She was recommended to me so I really don't know if she is that good |
