Dog & Cat Grooming

Our goal is to offer a calm, stress-free, friendly, and very clean salon environment along with high quality grooming results. We know grooming your dog is a team effort, and we value your input! We will ask detailed questions and take notes so to meet your expectations as closely as possible. We listen. We will provide advice regarding your pet’s breed type, comfort level, and condition of coat.

Stubby’s Groomers are professionally trained and safety oriented. We focus on pet wellness, comfort, and creating a positive experience. Our salon is equipped to meet the needs of all breeds of dogs, giant to miniature. Our groomers are experienced with giant breeds, large elderly dogs and difficult pups. We know grooming can be stressful, so we pay very close attention to your pet to ensure a safe and positive experience. While incredibly rare in circumstance, we do reserve the right to refuse service to unhealthy, unruly, or aggressive pets.

Stubby’s strives to create a unique and highly valued experience for you and your pet that other salons cannot offer.

Our belief in this fact is due to the following:

  • Our groomers are some of the most experienced in Southern Colorado with over 110 years of combined service.

  • We focus on the whole pet, not just the groom. We pride ourselves in our ability to give advice on nutrition and notify owners of possible health problems that need to be addressed by a vet (cancers, urinary tract issues, ear infections, masses under the skin and coat).

  • All natural professional quality products.

All our grooming/spa packages include:

  • Nail Trimming

  • Nail Dremeling (upon request and tolerance by the dog)

  • Anal Gland Expression (upon request)

  • Clarifying bath & shampoo bath

Stubby’s does NOT charge extra fees for the above.
